recently installed the pro 5.0 and lou's short stick, no complaints except that every now and then the bolts holding the stick in place keep coming loose and the stick gets loose.
anyone else have this problem?

 

I had this problem once. Then I reinstalled it with loctite, lock washers and then wrapped it with duct tape. Hope that helps.

That's a little excessive. Just put some blue loctite on the bolts and that should do it.

 

Lol, yeah loctite works great on it's own without lashing a rope and duct tape with super glue!

 

The stick nearly coming off in my hand may have made me a bit paranoid.

 

had same problem, threw some blue loctite on there and hasnt come loose

 

No problems here I have the same setup and I pound gears like a gorilla I guess you didn't install it right??

 

i guess everyone else who responded didnt install it right??
loctite it is!

 

Yeah the same thing happened to mine. I never put loctite on it though i just keep tightening it up. Maybe next time I do it I will spring the 4 or 5 dollars for loctite.

 

loctite is on, lets see how it works

 

Blue Loctite fixed it for me. I made the mistake of only putting it on the top bolt the first time, and had to go back and do both bolts about a month later. Been quite a while since then, and it's still as solid as if it had been welded. I yank the **** out of it, too.

 

mine came loose just recently, i just put some loctite on it and it's been good ever since
