If you clean everything properly and let the silicone sealant fully set, you don't even need zip ties.
That is what I was thinking but I did it before I saw your post. Thanks anyway. I will try that next time. For now I have a very small bead of Losi Blue and a zip tie and it looks solid. But I have another question. Is the slide removable? And if so how? I do not have a problem with mine but I cannot figure out how they assemble it.
