Hi Guys,

my transmission is making a rattling noise again. This same thing
happened two years ago and I found that the bolt holding the front
half of the U-joint into the transmission shaft had fallen out and was
bouncing around in the U-joint. 10+yrs ago when I installed it I
torqued the bolt to whatever was asked, then two years ago I cleaned
the threads with brake cleaner to get rid of any oil, applied lock
tight and overtightened it but it has still came un done again.

I have been driving for about 6 months with this bolt out and nothing
has happened. The first time it happened I drove for about a year
before fixing it. Do you guys think I could just remove the bolt?

Or does anyone have any suggestions on how to make sure it doesnt come
out again?

Thanks for all your help,
Luke
