Hopefully i&#039;ll be doing that soon as the right sight of barrels pops up at the right time.<br /> <br /> I<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Switchback Motions:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2012-09-20 21:37:22)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> GE Silicone II is the most recommended sealant I have found. Just make sure you buy sealant for aluminum or you can experience leaks.<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;frostvectron:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2013-01-07 21:50:40)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> When replacing wheel hardware, is there any special specs needed for the bolts/nuts (hardness, material, etc.)? Will Metric 12.9 suffice?<br /> <br /> Also, is it best to assemble with or without loctite/thread locker?<br /> <br /> Thanks!<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Switchback Motions:&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;small&gt;(2013-01-07 23:10:23)&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> Usually most wheel hardware is 10.9 or greater. Personally I&#039;d use known wheel hardware over &quot;hardware store&quot; parts.<br /> <br /> Always use blue or medium loctite/threadlocker, you don&#039;t want to have them come loose due to vibrations.</div>
