blythmrk Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Basically as subject I am fitting as new bolts and adjusters to my refurbished sub frame but can I use a grease say copper grease to stop these seizing in the future? They are not nylock nuts so presume this is fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I have used copper grease on mine as the zinc comes out and the bolts go in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blythmrk Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 Hi thank you for your reply! On the threads etc too? I have coated mine in pu laquer they look great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 My bolts are all zinc coated from running out the molten zinc plugs so they look really shiny but all greased up. They are a tight fit after tapping the threads clean with the bolts so I'm just using the grease to help them in really. They are tight enough nothing will ever shake them loose and I'd imagine coated bolts are going to be a pretty tight fit to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
