MJ: I am glad you think enough of me to honor me with your great and vast knowledge, BUT, there is all ways a but.

1) I did not strip it down to the bare metal, just knocked the rust off the rusty areas. There fore the rust converter is working like it should in the areas it should. The rest still has galvinize on it, with a coat of rust converter and paint. :P

2) I used the Never Seez as per the manufactures instructions. Stainless to Stainless can and most often will gall to itself, usually when tighting. If you get it to tighten then it will most likely come apart. I also have the locking nuts that you talk about and they are properly torqued to 2.5 grunts and three GEEZ's. And if there is one thing my wife has tought me in 16 years, it is to read the instructions.

Stainless would rust there for you no need it.
Its called Never Seez not Never Rust. I now see why they call you wind talker:P *:P

3) If I do like I am suppose to, and I probably wont, I will check bolt tightness after the first trip. :P :P :P

MJ Dont take this reply too harsh, I wasn't born perfect, it took the first two years of my life to acheive. ;D
