Prop shaft annoyance

[dannyboi200sx]

Hi guys, I've noticed that every time I check my car underneath I have to tighten my prop shaft bolts.

I have done this a few times, at first I thought it could be the fact the bolts and nuts were old, so I changed them for spares that I had.

That didn't work so I replaced the nuts with nyloc nuts. That also hasn't worked, I then used new spring washers and nuts still hasn't worked

Has anyone got any more ideas??

Wirelock them together. You'll have to either buy pre drilled or drill the nuts. But once done they won't budge

Yeah I haven't thought of that to be honest, thanks

Genuine bolts or aftermarket? They could be stretching. Tighten them and put a paint mark on them.

I used genuine the first time, kept the same bolts and just changed the nuts

Want to sell the spare nuts&bolts pal? I'm struggling to get a set from local shops

I used them and there still coming loose, I'd personally ring up Nissan as they still stock them

This is what I did after I had to cut stock ones off and couldn't find replacements. Tight as hell. http://imgur.com/a/3hbAR

Use some nordlock washers. Itll hold fine after that.
