Most others will not agree with me but I didn't have luck with anything besides stock. The aftermarket anti-fades always loosened on me. The trick to the stock locknut is to get it as tight as you can while putting red locktight in the threads.

Ive had decent luck with stock and red loc tite. Ive also had good luck with the cheap modquad nuts. Loctite is the trick to whatever nut you have. And if it keeps loosening it may not be a nut problem. It could be a bearing problem also.

I haven't had that bad of luck with anti-fade nuts. I've had a Durablue that worked great and never got loose until it got seized up from river water and sand and I couldn't tighten it or loosen it to take it off. Now I have an RPM anti-fade and I coated it with anti-seize and I haven't had any issues with it yet. Now that being said I never had an issue with the stock locknuts either, so it's basically just down to personal preference. Whether you want something that's basic and works or if you want something that performs and looks good but also costs alittle more.

I've ran anti-fades on every bike I have ever ran on MX. The design makes it much easier. You can take the same precautions as a stock one.

I use thread tape on the inside of the large nut.

I run the same setup and I have never had a problem. The trick I use is to wrap the lock nut as tight as you can with electric tape and it hasn't loosened on mine ever. You have to be sure to tape both the nut and piece it threads on to together.

I use a RPM locknut and it has never loosened up on me.
