[QUOTE="oexing, post: 103694, member: 1493"] There are a LOT of very different Loctite products and you will find a type for your specific problem for sure. For easier disassembling I recommended the low strength 222 for use on the spline and on the C 20 thread. That will be not too hard to undo. But you can test it on any other items to get a feel. I would not use a type of non-settling cement as it would not position the joint rigidly like a settling type. As I said, whenever there is slack in the splines you will not get a permanently tight C 20 nut because of subsequent wear in the train of components on the gearshaft. Exchanging the worn carrier with new will not help much as the gearshaft will have same amount of wear on its own spline. So not a big point in doing up that nut excessively, will not last long for obvious reason.
