The 3 levers on the side of my transmission keep loosening up on me. Tried lock tite and they still loosened. Any ideas on a cure? Nylon locking nuts or maybe double nutting? Im sure others have had this issue
 
I clean mine good just snug up and then silicon the nut to stud it work for me.
 
I used Teflon tape since the threads are just simple worn out. The nuts would jiggle on the threads. Then
Lock tight.
 
hi, use a internal tooth washer and nyloc nuts to hold them . if your arms don't fit tight on the shaft, they will loosen up, that is caused by the movement of shift arm. I use to weld mine , then file them to fit very snugly on shaft. no problems after that. just food for thought.
 
I used nylon insert locknuts. No problems.
