Applications

Tech Note 1: Optional Thread Treatments
For driveshaft and transmission mount applications, I like to apply Blue 242 Threadlocker to the threads to maximize retention. When used on rear driveshaft center bearing mount, I usually apply Anti-seize compound as these fasteners are often subjected to a lot of corrosive road splash.

Tech Note 2: Product Highlights
These application-specific bolts differ from common 7/16" Grade 8 bolts by having a taller head and permanently attached concave washer which functions as both a flat washer and lock washer. While it may seem like these features are not worth the substantially higher cost compared to standard bolts, from my perspective as a long-term wrench turner they are. First of all, you have to realize access to these bolts is quite restricted for many applications. The higher head makes it a whole lot easier to keep your 5/8" wrench or socket engaged on the fastener and believe me, mashing your knuckles when your wrench slips off is not much fun. The attached washer eliminates having to fumble around with separate lock washers and flat washers, plus if you are using lock and flat washers and want full thread contact in the transfer case yoke you would need to use a 1/4" longer fastener which means there will be more exposed threads to corrode and strip next time you remove the driveshaft.
