I could hear the 'grind' on the course before a jump, thought it was the ball diff, when that was still butter I knew it had happened again.
The thing about repeated therad lock is after a few applications 3-5 it starts to collect on the threads and works without neededing to apply more for a little while. It is worth a try. I use serrated nuts and crank the nuts down if I use disks. The other trick is the glue the disks to the wheels.
