Before re- installing (same or new): Clean dropout and inspect carefully for any cracks or damage.
Clean surfaces and apply a light film of bike grease to the dropout to minimize any noise or
"creaking" that might result from very slight movement between the dropout and hanger during
movement of the derailleur. Apply grease and Loctite carefully. Do not contaminate the male or
female bolt threads with grease which would cause the Loctite to be ineffective.
