[QUOTE="bluesdog, post: 1250523, member: 25896"] afaik, none of the bolts for the left footrest assembly require any type of threadlocker. That particular bolt is supposed to be tightened to 35ft-lb, which is pretty darn snug, but at least in my FSM no loctite specified. I cannot recall having any difficulty removing it when servicing the shift pivot for the first time. If it was threadlocked with red loctite at the factory, and no mention of this was in your FSM, you may want to mention this to the dealer. BTW, red locite should only be used on fasteners that normally don't need to be loosened. Heating the bolt head with a small propane torch will typically be necessary to break the seal. [/QUOTE]
