      Threadlocker is serious business. Spring washers are “okay.” Lockwashers do absolutely nothing.

        I’ll bear that in mind. I see I’ve been downvoted for my unorthodox opinion, and am thoroughly chasteberried.

          Frankly, if you really want extra safety on a fastener without going as far as threadlocker, use a shouldered fastener or a Nylock nut.

            We’re going spring washer, jam nut, Nylock nut and threadlocker. I’m rebuying the threadlocker.
