Fleetwin,
I believe you are saying Do as I say, not as I do IE, The factory used nothing but who back then thought after 20 years they would still be around! 😆 I have never used sealer but why not!! Don’t forget the bottom end tap for the holes too & remove the scrap thread chunks. The antisieze I have used on Corvair & V.W. stuff & still came apart after we blew them up. More like sanded them at Baha!!

Well, the factories don’t coat the threads of fasteners, probably due to cost considerations and paint problems when the sealer gets on surfaces that get painted.
And, in this case, I definitely do as I say!
