Spray threads with wd40, Silicone with Teflon, or etc before you install the blue plastic drain plugs. Barely ever deal with any breaking any more.

Other trickm is since it is o-ringed and not an AN plug, don't twist them on hard . LOL.

BTW: BAM will now send small items USPS flat rate. Call them if your online order has questionable shipping amt before you finish your checkout.

Yeah, the shipping was over $12 and should have only cost a couple $. Anyway Overton's has free shipping and cheaper price. I was tightening them too tight to be sure they couldn't vibrate loose. I usually snug them down with pliers. I thought about making a set out of cut down SS bolts.
