    The nut should be around $20.00, about same cost as bottle of thread locker...

    Cleaned the threads, and lathered loctite blue on. Torque it to 450 ft lbs which is all I could get while laying in the melting ice under the truck. Took at least half the play out of the yoke, so we’ll see what happens.
