I just got home from running my car for the second time on carpet. It's been a couple of weeks since the first time I ran and it took a little to get back into a groove. LAst time I started off on 1/2 throttle and moved to 3/4 throttle before a control arm was broken (not by me though).

This evening went well except for the fact that halfway through my 2nd pack and I clipped the wall with the LF which happen to make the RR wheel break. i replaced the wheel and when i drove it, the car oversteered badly. When I checked it, I found the front diff had come loose. I checked it and apart from a thrust ball missing everything seemed fine so I put in another ball and put it back together. What I want to know, is the diff loosening something that is fairly common and what can I do to stop it happening again? Loctite the threads?
