The driver side wheel keeps coming off. The first time this happened I used "red' lock tight and let it dry. The wheel stayed on for about 2 tanks of fuel. Than can off again. I did the same thing as earlier. In total it fell off about 5-6 times. So I thought I got smart, I replaced the wheel hub and nut. I used lock tight again. Well it's fell off twice since yesterday. Any other ideas? I thought about replacing the rims.

Thanks
 
Did you clean the threads before applying the loctite. Otherwise I can't for the life of me figure out what could cause it.

I use a dab of blue loctite on mine and they stay on tight. Sometimes it's a struggle to get them of again.
 
Yes I cleaned it with alcohol and let it dry, before I put the lock-tight on. Thanks for the help.
