loctite/grease

[redrum]

ok so in the middle of rebuild now im starting to get everything back together. just about every bolt and nut and screw i took out was stripped or rusted or seized..i know you shouldnt put loctite or grease on this and that. so my question is what bolts should i put loctite on and what bolts should i put anti-seize or grease on?

 

[88WarriorBoy]

put blue lotite on any engine bolt and anti seize on any frame/ suspension bolt. That is a good rule of thumb

 

[redrum]

no loctite on the main rear shock bolts? or anything i really wouldnt want to come loose?

 

[88WarriorBoy]

they usually have a built in lock nut and I have never had one come loos if it was tightend the first time

WOAH. Only loctite the cam bolts and flywheel bolt, you use dielectric grease on the head bolts. EVERYTHING ELSE JUST TIGHTEN DRY. Otherwise it wont come off later or you wont be able to keep it on!

AAnd use a TON of anti seize on the swingarm pivot bolt.
