Speaking of Anti Seaze, have any of you had a repair facility refuse to use thread lock for safety reasons? A friend of mine works for Discount Tire , and I took mine to his store to have the tires spin balanced and rotated, and they informed me and Dad that they removed the anti-seize we applied when changing brake pads, because it was unsafe and would cause a broken wheel stud, or worse. They also wouldn't give Dad a chance to explain our reason for using the stuff, or that he even knew that in the first place. When I talked to the friend later he refered to them as "chuckle heads" several times, because of that and that they lost a center cap off one of the wheels and tried to pass it off as one that was missing when I brought it in (I thought they were talking about valve stem cap, so that was my goof). They found that later and gave it to him to give to me.
