"Spring bolt -- axle journal"

"Steering bolt sleeve -- front wheel drive housing"

That's all the info I have ;-)

I can't even find the effing parts mentioned, the part numbers given
don't exist and their descriptions don't match anything I can find...

I believe they are high strength threadlocks, that's the assumption
under which I'm progressing, but these two are low priority given that
the bits they are used on don't appear to exist...  Bloody
krautwagon.  I've found the up-to-date equivalents of all the other
loctites I'm likely to need.

I can recommend Buck and Hickman for this kind of thing BTW, they've
been more helpful than most other sites;

Yep, I saw that one, it was one of the things that lead me to believe
they were both more or less equivalent and are high-strength
threadlocks or bearing fixers.  I was trying to find something from
loctite that matched, normally they phase one out and introduce an
equivalent.

Thanks!

OK - here it is. This follows a discussion with Loctite UK.

Loctite 307

A high strength structural adhesive used for bonding flat, uncoated
metallic surfaces. Normally used with an activator/primer.

Today's nearest - Loctite 326 used with Activator 7649(Activator N).

Loctite 636

This is a bit 'grey' still. The product was never used in the UK and
no datasheet has been found yet (still hopeful, however). Strongly
believed to be an early version of 638 with possibly a slightly longer
cure time. It's a high strength retaining compound.

Today's nearest - Loctite 638. If a longer cure time is needed (very
unlikely) use Loctite 640.

I've got a copy of the 307 datasheet as an Acrobat file. Unfortunately
its from a scan and is 1.7MB. The others I mention later are tiny in
comparison.

If you want that, Ian, or those for the suggestions from the current
range I can send them to you. Is that e-mail address usable?

Thanks for that, useful info, I'll investigate further.

Rebuilding bits of pinzgauer, the front differential housing tore,
manufacturing defect from the look of it, the casing only looks a few
years old too.

The back of the manual has a 33-year-old list of loctite products that
are required and where they are needed, I needed about four of them
immediately so decided to try and track them all down at once.  The
two that I can't find aren't ones I need right now but I'll bet I'll
need them in a hurry on a sunday at some point.

Yep, spotted that one, cheers.  I spent a few hours googling and was
surprised that I couldn't find much that was really concrete.

Cheers for all of that, I'll check out the links tomorrow.

Yes, 6xx series definitely retaining compound. Is it the green coloured
stuff? 'cos if it is and you get it wrong you'll have a hell of a job to get
it off again.

Yep, but if the part in question was recommended to have 243 on it,
they'd have said so in the manual, there's a big list of other parts
that need 243 and the parts in question are explicitly not in that
list.  The various loctites have some quite important differences,
e.g. different strengths, different gap tolerances, temperature ranges
etc etc but I don't know how important these are in this situation.
It would help enormously if I knew what the parts were in the first
place ;-)
