Hey corner carvers,
I recently had an issue with my Whiteline RSB, one of the U-bolts that secures it to the axle got its threads stripped. Whiteline sent me a replacement very quickly (and at no cost) - but I am wondering if this has happened to anyone else, or if it is due to some "user error".
Should I be using loctite on the U-bolt? I have the bar set to the 2nd hole from full stuff, so it is exerting quite a lot of "pulling" force downward on those threads. Also, what should I torque it to? There are no torque specs in their installation instructions.
Thanks,
Jim
