My Puma has had oil leaks into the park brake drum due to the Nylock nut coming loose. This has happened several times, even after the dealers did the modified procedure with a double ring of locktite on the shaft thread. It seems the Nylock nut just doesn't do its job, even when torqued up properly.
This time, I got some advice from the local fastener people who recommended a 2 piece washer, which makes it much harder to come loose. Hopefully, I'll get this done on the weekend. Just thought I'd share this with others who have had the same problem. It sounds good, and makes sense, but obviously I can't vouch for it yet.
