Grubs need blue locktight. They will back out. They will also spin out if you do not file them flat before installing them. On the wheel nuts, they will also back off. I actually tighten them up and glue them in place with ZAPII sealant.:)

I wish they made lock nuts like they do for Baja. I have Dark Soul wheel nuts and they are great.

Where can I get the zapii sealant? Is that like locktigh? Do u use both?

You can get it at any hobby store. Just call and ask. Should be under 5 bucks.
I use it on everything. It is tough enough to hold, flexible enough to stick, and easy enough to remove. Its also great for bodies.
I tighten the lock nut on the tire, take the cap off the tube of zap and fit the tip of the tube right over the axle shaft. This puts a coating of sealant over the shaft and nut. It will not allow the nut to loosen to the point of spinning the rim. I also use it on all nuts and bolts on the model to keep them from backing all the way out.
