I have had this happen a few times. I have not had success with Locktite, but
JB weld has worked.

Subject: [TR] TR4A trunk hinge question
Hi all,
Itâ??s been some time since I have posted on this list but here goes.
During the restoration of my TR4A, I had purchased a new set of hinges for the
trunk which was about 10 years ago.
After noticing one hinge coming apart I found that the short threaded stud one
that hinge actually pulled itself out of the hinge.
Two questions:
1. Is this a common failure mode?
2. If I used red Locktite or JB Weld to secure the studs would they stay put?
Thanks,
Dave Connitt
