^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Right! Loctite and Permatex both make thread repair kits, which include the
release agent. They will work fine in this application. Don't try to use
this on a head bolt or a bearing cap, but for non critical applications,
they're fine. Go to a bearing supply house.

Permatex and LocTite are the same company.
