xscream steering bolt

[bobob729]

Ive been looking for a way to keep my bolt from coming lost on my steering. Who has it and has solved the issue other than using loctite. Ive tried it last a month or so.

Longer bolt and a nylock nut worked for me

that was my plan just wanted another persons opinion before i tried it out

Make sure your parts are clean before using loctite if you use it
Try using two nuts

What about using a castle nut like on a tie rod then cross drilling the bolt and pining it.

Idk if you're open to alternative suggestions but I have done RRP steering system conversions on X-Metal handlepoles and it works flawlessy, requires only a bit of work on the lathe and some grinding, looks cleaner too.

Xscream pole with the RRP steering is the ultimate setup. That's what's going on my 2014 Hurricane too

Soon no work at all. I convinced them to add the 4 threaded holes so all their poles have that now. Recently we talked again about opening up the hole in the center so that change is in the works as well. So on the newest pole there won't be any modding at all.

That's awesome! Last pole we did had the four holes but still had to hog out the center. That will be such an easy setup now

I took a piece of scrap 2in aluminum bar and cut it To fit the nut then bolted into place through my steering stop bolt. It's an old umi al pole and works great

Just got new pole about 3 weeks ago. Installed my ADA steering with no issues.


It was already drilled and tapped for the UMI type steering post....... The center hole was correct size as well.

Way to go on that! IT kind of bothered me having to drill out that center hole on a brand new 700 dollar pole.

If you just make suure the bolt and nut is clean, use red loctite and let it dry for 24 hours before using it will stay
