I'm driving a T2'009 EU-version with a one-way axle (instead of a spool). The pin (10mm) in the T2 drive axle (front) is getting loose while driving. I've followed the instructions meaning that I did the greasing of the T2 drive shaft coupling and the drive shaft 52 mm, and thread locking the hex screw SB M3x2.5.

Although the hex screw is still tight, the pin gets out of the T2 drive axle at one end, hitting the composite steering block. And because of this the T2 drive axle doesn't work like it should (because the pin is sticking out the drive axle on one side).

I hope you understand what I'm trying to tell...
If you crank the screw down tight enough it should stay. If you can't get it tight enough you have two choices.

1. Cut a notch in the pin so the grub screw can sit in the notch to keep it from moving. Kind of like notch in the pin that holds on your C-Hubs.

2. Heat shrink the ends of the axels.
