My situation with this is that the prop shaft's front bolts (the 6 black 8x65 hex ones) keeps vibrating loose after a few miles. Found a place to fix it but its about a 30-40 mile drive. Would temporarily putting nuts of the same grade to lock them down just for the drive over F it up more than it already is???

How is the washer plate where the bolts go in looking?

The bolts and washers are 2 weeks old

Same grade nuts should work. What magic is going to happen at the "fix it" place.

Nuts loosen after a few miles? As in half a dozen? If so this ain't gonna work.

Getting the prop shaft rebalanced, the place in going to is doing an inspection for free before charging.

If the bolts are coming loose, then they are not properly tightened.

Thought about that at first but going by the shop manual, I had them down to 24lbs. The prop shaft does feel unbalanced though.
