Alternator Crank Nut

Post by Martin.S »

As a youth there was difficulty keeping the alternator crank nut tight - had to centre pop the threads on my '63 CSR - Why isn't a tab washer used?

I would suggest just using some loctite threadlock, this should do the job and will not damage anything when it comes to having to remove in the future
