So I am running a JDM 23mm on my EK civic....

and using the correct endlinks...

for purposes of not losing an the nut on the track, or having to worry about the nut coming loose after coming from a track event..

does anyone have any tips I can use to really secure the ish out of the rear endlink nut?

I have already done this:

Nylon Locking Nuts (maybe add a washer, would that be a good idea?)

thanks

 

You can't beat safety wire.

Why are you so worried about the endlinks coming loose?

 

safety wire?

how does that work

oh and dont want to deal with rattle or loose the nut for the sway bar then loose the endlink....

Basically, drill a small hole in the nut, run wire through the hole to something rigid so that it can't spin. This can be another fastener or just something that doesn't move.

 

You could use the blue as well, do some research to find out the differences...

 

Is there enough threads showing to allow you to double nut it. Or do you have a hardware store near you that stocks thin nuts? I have had success using two nuts with the outer being nylock.

I like this being that you can tighten the first nut as tight (or loose) as you like and then just keep it there with the other nut tightened against it.

Loc-tite thread lock works well too.

 

use loctite blue, it is a temporary one. do not use loctite red, it is permanent.
