You need to be using a close-tolerance NAS Shear-Bolt in this application. They are available from Pegasus Racing and maybe McMaster-Carr among other places. They can be obtained with lock-wire holes in the head and you can get lock-wire nuts for them... I would just use some loctite red, but your choice.
