Three subject wheel bearings have excessive play indicating that the pre-loading has failed. The disassembly of the real hubs appear straignt forward. When reassembling what locktight should be used to lock the hub bolts in place. Should new GM bolts with pre installed locktight patch be use? Should they be reassembled without locktight? Are there any other assembly precautions to be observed that are not obvous?

GM recommends new bolts with the loctite on them. You can get by with just using red loctite on them.
