magnetic drain plug LT 565

I put on a drummer and did not install loc tight on the chin fairing bolts (tightened one to tight and heard a snap and cracked the front lower fairing a bit. Do you think that will be ok? tanks

You really only need three of them for the most part. The red (262/high strength) and blue (242/medium strength) threadlockers and the 565 thread sealant.

It all boils down to doing it the right way and having less trouble in the long run. If you find yourself twisting bolts off from frequent retightening and losing parts and pieces along the road, it does not take long for it to became part of the routine.

I wrap most bolts with teflon tape, way better IMO
