Great info here guys.

For those who wish to add blue Loctite to the CV bolt threads.....

Would applying Loctite to the bolt holes, instead of the bolt threads
be of any use?

I recall that applying Loctite to the bolt threads, and trying to keep
those clean while installing the CV, was a minor PITA. Figured
applying the Loctite to the bolt holes would be less of a pain.
