Freestyle X metal trim / nozzle issue

[SmittySX]

I'm running x metal trim with a protec nozzle. It works great except for the fact that the 2 bolts holding the nozzle on ( top and bottom bolts ) keep rattling loose...
the problem is I can't tighten them super right or else the bolts stick through and don't allow the nozzle to pull up... I loaded them up with lock tight and they rattled loose. and there's no room to put a nut on the other end of The bolt...

You need shorter bolts, or longer bushings. The bolts have to be able to tighten down fully on the bushing. You can just put them in part way with loc tite and hope they stay.

That's the thing... I don't want to just " hope"... Because then I'll go through about 20 nozzles this season....
and I am debating the thrust trim...

I'm sorry, You canNOT just put them in part way with loc tite and hope they stay.

Get some bolt that are the correct length or cut/grind the bolts a little shorter until length is correct, then use red loctite and let dry overnight or at least several hours before using.

I didn't put them in part way?
i think my problem is the right size bushings to match Tw right size bolts.

Just hit up x-metal and ask for the correct bolts and bushings

U could run longer bushings, problem is there to short and the bolts r bottoming out on nozzle

BIG THANKS to X scream for hooking me up with the proper bolts and bushings.
