So I'm assembling my front Wilwood calipers and have a few quick questions:
The instructions ask for Red Loctite on the bolts going into the caliper itself (and everywhere for that matter). I am hesitant to do this (I avoid Red Loctite at all costs anyways and typically just use Blue instead). I'm wanted to just check to make sure I'm not missing something by using only blue loctite throughout my brake assembly (e.g., disk hat bolts, caliper bolts, caliper bracket bolts, etc.).
Second, the car is going to be going to the track so I suspect some pad swapping will be in my future - which of course requires the removal of the entire caliper itself. With that said, track-goers, are you changing anything in the way you assemble the calipers (no loctite, blue loctite, etc.) to assist with this process?
