Clutch Ball Stud to Engine Block Question
Hopefully a quick question ... The AIM states 40-50 lbs ft of torque for bolting this stud into the engine.
My question is: Are there any washers or lock washers used with this ball stud, or does it just bolt into the block? (If no lock washer, I'd assume Loctite Blue would be appropriate).
Thanks in advance!!!

I just replaced mine. It had a slight bend in it after 45 years of use. There was no washer and if it did come loose, it can only come out slightly because of the seats in the Z-bar. I used blue Loctite on my new one.
