Is my LMT EBCG Sufficiently Staked?

Thanks guys. I figured that it was okay, but it was different enough that I thought I’d run it by y’all that know more than I do.

In my opinion, no. I had 2 LMT BCG's that looked very similar to your BCG. I assumed because it was LMT that it was proper. On one the gas key and bolts came loose. When I contacted LMT, the person I spoke to informed me that it was a "field fix." He stated to tighten the bolts and "hit it with a screwdriver." When I asked him about properly torque figures on the bolts, he again said just tighten the bolts and hit it with a screwdriver. Needless to say, I was not impressed by this response. I then checked to make sure the bolts had not sheared. I then properly applied the recommended torque. I have the proper device to stake gas keys and used it on both my LMT BCG's. They have been GTG since then. This is my experience and is a sample of one. YMMV.

Cheers, Steve

It looks pretty weak to me, personally if it was mine I'd MOACKS that bitch.

OP, an we get a shot of the LMT from the side?

Just make sure then you never get one.

Not quite as pretty as the BCM but I say your good. If it bugs you give it a good whack

I’m on the road for work, but I’ll post a side shot when I get home.
