RE: Noob with a plane (kinda)
Sure, the collets and locktite will work to keep them from slipping. But why make it so complicated? An L-bend with a keeper is practically indestructible and requires no tools to remove. The only place where I would say the kwik links are actually a better method is on a throttle where we rarely get the pushrod length right the first time and it can be difficult to get the clevis off of the carburetor.
