I just bought A 1998 Dodge 2500 2WD with a 5.9 Liter 24 Valve. I'm in the process of installing a KDP kit, pin was flush but not taking any chances. My question is 2 of the 3 case bolts that are located behind camshaft gear. One I can loosen but won't come all the way out (about 1/8 out of hole) and the other is behind gear. Do I loosen then clean and place Loctite 290 behind the head of bolt and reinstall (290 is the wicking Loctite). Also can I remove the 4- 13mm bolts by crankshaft, one at a time and apply Loctite 271 (Red) and reinstall and torque. I believe there are 2 more 13 mm bolts behind camshaft for retainer, can I do the same with these. I have searched forum a lot of good information but can't find anything directly about this issue. I have also looked at different KDP instructions, but question not answered. I want everything tight before I button it back up.


Thank You for any info
