Yeah. On the face of it, it just seems wrong. I'm going to engage Grady Clay on this, see if I can get him to hop onto this thread. (Pun intended).

It seems like it would be impossible to accurately torque the nuts w/ that crap on them. usually, you need to oil the nuts and get the threads perfect and clean, the design of them makes them hard to turn freely and also contributes to the fact that they just NEVER come loose if they are torqued correctly. Thread-locker on the other end, (in case), would be OK if needed. 911 engines have Loctite on studs in the case from factory.

This will all get rectified.
