I have a V-8 car running spacers between the inner CVs and the drive flanges. Perhaps because there are two CV gaskets on each side, the bolts loosen all the time. It seems like every time I check them, they are loose! I have drilled the heads of the bolts and plan to safety wire them and maybe use red lock tight. Anyone have any further thoughts about how to keep these little bitches tight? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

Took a peek at mine and it looks like the same setup.
Long 8mm studs through CV, adapter, and into drive flange.
There are some thin little washers in there, and a pair of flat, slightly curved metal pieces with two holes. (for two of the bolts to pass through.)
I'd take photos, but don't have a camera at the moment.
I was thinking safety wire at first too, but after having such a bitch of a time getting them loose I'm not sure I'll need it.
