if the bolts were torqued properly then the bolts wouldnt have broke. zero need for thread locker.

It’s safe to say after watching 90% of your videos. Stay away from Dodge Rams ??

One thing I have learned about Dave's videos. No matter what he says, a bunch of tiktok mechanics will start crying about how they've been a mechanic for 87 years and you should never do that.

I think on that engine, there was no Loctite used during factory assembly

I agree with comments loctite isn’t the problematic. If it was torque correctly probably not a loctite issue. More likely improper torque setting

if the bolts didn't work loose then lock tight wouldn't have made any difference

just to let you know this is a common problem in the 19 and up i have seen it happen more than 5 times and locktight has nothing to do with it

On a Cummins you don’t put loctite on the bolts. You’re supposed to put oil on the threads and torque it to spec!

Nobody touched that balancer. A real shop would look at see that there is a TSB for those balancers swelling and causing that exact issue with the crank and flex plate. Cummins knows there was an issue and has already updated the balancer.
