Glanza1996 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 So I got a little problem were every couple of weeks I have to tighten up the bolts. I have had a mechanic look at this but he failed and I have tried all sorts of bolts putting washers on etc has anyone got any ideas how I can stop them from coming undone? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thorpy36 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Serrated nuts will help as it bites into the metal of the flange as it try's to undo itself preventing them coming loose Edited July 13, 2014 by thorpy36 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
