landroversforever Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Do I need to let loctite dry before putting bolts together? seems to be conflicting views online... loctite 270 if that makes any difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 NO Clean bolt AND the thread its going into with Brake Cleaner, then air blow it, ensure the bolt and thread is clean and dry shove loctiete on to the bolt do up and leave. It will sort itself out and dry But cleaner the bolt / thread better the stuff works Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted May 15, 2010 Author Share Posted May 15, 2010 cant air blow it but cleaned with brake cleaner can so a bit of a blast. ARB compressor doesnt have the puff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white90 Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Ross just blow it best you can then apply loctite and fit /tighten bolt the loctite works by drying out once the bolt is tight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
