MIP CVDs

Tried to find a decent Loctite link for you...this should do -> http://www.loctite.com/int_henkel/lo...d=114&layout=3


Typically Loctite is sold in different strengths like this; blue, green, and red. Blue is the weakest, green is in the middle, and red means that you don't and won't *ever* need to unscrew those two parts again. Ever.

I use blue. Seems to work just fine. I think MIP uses blue "Loctite" in their kits...quoted Loctite cuz I'm not sure if its the brand Loctite or a knock off.

I tried green once. Put it in the CF servo plate. The plate broke and w/ the small size hex head I wasn't able to get the screws out. Being the plate was already broken (I left out two screws and raced it, my bad) I decided to "disassemble" it w/ a pair of dykes (pliars!).

I think w/ the CVD's there's probably a better alternative to thread lock. At least w/ the drive shafts there's enough clearance to use another method, the axle joints on the other hand have little to no clearance so something like a pin and grub screw may be one of the few solutions.

[edit]
btw, what kind of hex wrenches are you people using? I hate the cheapies that I have and want to get a good kit w/ various sizes...and stuff that won't strip!
