You may need to heat up the nut with a torch to melt the loctite
Yep, I came in the house to refill my coffee and expressed my displeasure to my wife about this nut. After I brewed my cup I told her I am headed down to Harbor Freight to get a torch, she said go out and try it one more time before you go,I put the wrench on it and the nut just came right loose with no effort? I went back in and asked what do you know, she said she had prayed. I said to bad you did not pray about him preserving the trans in the first place LoL.
So its all good. I’ll clean up the threads and put red loctite on it when I assemble it.
Thanks for the quick response. I have the trans ready to come out I am just waiting on the special socket to remove that nut on the drive side.
By the way I know the compensator nut torque is like 165ftlbs what is the torque on the 4 bottom trans nuts and that special 1 7/8 nut?
thanks
