My last truck sheared all three bolts off in the block and I do not want to go through that nightmare again. I've heard of people chaining down the engine to the frame rails. Anybody got any thoughts or input on this?? Thanks!!!

Keep bolts tight.... They usually only pull out when there is slack, then u jump on the skinny pedal and it slams against the head of the bolt .... Causing it to pull out or break the bolt head off .... Red Loc-tire works wonders
