DONT EAT THE BLUE LOCTITE! Calling all Mechanics... Cummins Truck Vibration FIX??
What happens here
Position the rear universal joint back onto the differential yoke. Apply Loctite Threadlocker Blue 242 to the threads of the four bolts before inserting and tightening them. The presenter specifically chooses blue Loctite, which allows for future removal, as opposed to red Loctite which creates a permanent bond.
Goal: Secure the rear driveshaft to the differential yoke.
Tools and materials
- Ratchet — Tightening bolts
- Socket Set — Appropriate size socket for bolts
- Loctite Threadlocker Blue 242 Loctite — Securing bolts against vibration and loosening
