Nylon threaded nuts are technically only strong once. After that, the threads are cut into the nylon, and the ultimate purpose of the nylon is lost. Get some nuts!!! New ones that is, or rely on thred-lock. |

Google toolbar has a nice spell check feature. So does Firefox. Checks things as you type. Get some new nylocks. |

The rear nuts coming off is a common problem with the slash.Blue loctite will fix it.Overtightening makes it worse.

| We've all said it before. Just because you're online, doesn't give you an excuse to talk/type like an idiot. |
