Which bolts need lock tight on clutch install?
Are there any specific bolts I need to apply thread locked to on my clutch/flywheel install? Thanks.

it doesnt say anything in the helms manual about applying anything to the threads so i dont bother...

Apply red loctite to the pressure plate bolts and pray you never need a new clutch.
J/K. Just torque the bolts to spec and you will be fine.

I use Permatex red on both too... I dunno it's just the way i've always done it... Red is a pain in the *** to get loose later on but it's good if you don't want the bolts to vibrate loose... hehe... red and 76ft/lbs. for the flywheel and red and 19ft/lbs. for the PP... Latez
