Avante 2011 Steering Knuckle Step Screws - Help!

Recommended Posts

Hi All, 

I have just built a 2011 Avante and am having issues with the front steering knuckle step screws working themselves loose. 

Other than drowning them in thread lock are there any tips here? If I tighten them too much the joint will bind and if I leave slightly loose they will eventually work themselves out as the steering is used. It seems like there should be a sleeve in the join.

Also yes I am using the spacer in the correct position.

Thanks!

Yeah. Clean up the threads. Clean up the inside of the knuckle. Drop of thread lock in the thread in knuckle itself. Re-grease the barrel of the screw - but not the thread. Then try to get it all together without getting grease mixed with thread lock. Good luck, it's a huge ball ache.
