Thread: flywheel torque

You run the risk of breaking the bolts off depending of humidity and temperature If you use red. I'd use blue and torque it.

How Ive used Red on every flywheel Ive ever put in and never broken a bolt becasue of that. The flywheel bolts are SUPER hard metal. The Red is even like lube when your first putting the bolts in. It wont hurt anything. THe only time the bolts break is if they are over tourqd and are spinning super fast. The heat breaks them after a while. The flywheel will wobble them out if they are to loose (undertqed) and break them.

An impact gun and a breaker bar are your friend when removing them. Hasnt failed me once. And Ive pulled my flywheel off 1000times

I'm no newb. I avoid red thread locker at all costs. Just my philosophy. Do what works for you
