Red or Blue Threadlocker for Axle Hub Bearing Mounting Bolts?

[GT997]

Do I use red or blue threadlocker when reinstalling the three front axle hub bearing mounting bolts? Thanks!

I don't think it requires any if properly torqued...

New factory hub mounting bolts seem to have red threadlocker RMS Product Details: 11570580 - Hub Bolt but I've also seen videos where blue threadlocker is used. This will be my first hub replacement.

none, just make them tight and they wont ever come loose.

 

[real diehl]

tighten them

Don't use any if you want to get them off ever again. Being a W body..you'll need to get them off again...

[never use red unless it is for permanent install, you need heat to remove it if using red threadlocker

blue is fine, I normally dont use any tho. dont use red or you will need a torch to get them out.

Locktite won't hurt, if you ever want to get the nut back off don't use the red lol

Red is pretty much permanent. Torque it right and forget it. You WILL be replacing your hubs again, anyway, might as well not make it impossible on your self.
