Axle bolts on 420

Post by Top Gun » Mon Jun 14, 2010 6:56 pm

When I disassembled the final drives I failed to notice that the lock tabs on the washer that go on the end of the axle (inboard side of course/ two 1/2' bolts) were missing. This thing has been apart a few times in it's life it seems and they are all broke off.

Can I use Blue loctite in it's place or bad idea :?:

The lock tabs are still available from Deere. I bought them about 2 months ago for $3.15, part # M2370T
