Loctite Red or Blue on 62T Stator?

[Kirv]

I wrecked a stator last weekend, installing another one, 62T.

Has anyone used loctite RED on the two bolts that hold down the stator plate? Does loctite red cause issues trying to remove the bolts?

Note the bottom of the two bolts is helicoiled, not sure if using red will cause issues there, like spinning out the coil upon removal of the bolt.

thanks

I wouldn't use red. The only think you need to use red for on a ski is the xmetal dual bolt set up.

id use blue... I use red on pole bolts like demon said and also the flywheel bolt...

i use red. when i remove I use one of those hammer impact thingys so that i don't strip the heads of the screws. better safe than sorry. even if you strip the heads of the screws you can get a pair of vice grips on the screw heads and rotate them off.
