    TD5

    I was wondering if I should use medium strength Loctite on the treads of the three bolts that hold the flexi plate to the torque converter in my D2

    YES. I don't have the RAVE screen specific to this but i can tell you to says to use Loctite 243 - Medium. (actually i think it says to uses the number the 243 replaces)

    I'll bet you would be kicking yourself if you didn't. There are posts on this forum from people who have had intermittent noise that they couldn't find due to loose torque converter flex plate bolts.

    No mention of loctite just new bolts so if your reusing bolts it may be a good idea see step 21

    I stand corrected. I used Loctite Not the kind of bolt i want to ever come loose. They're too hard to tighten.
