The other day I changed the rotors on the wifes '85 300D. I had a hellova time breaking loose the bolts that hold the calipers on.
I noticed the bolts had blue stuff near the tip. I'm guessing it's Locktite. I didn't put any locktite on the bolts when I re-assembled. I didn't put any on the hub bolts either. Do I need to? I'd rather not so they won't be so difficult to remove in the future. Although, I don't want the calipers or rotors to fall off either! P.S. I got a used MB caliper from a bone yard for $25. It works fine.
