I have to agree with you here. I did it the way the OP is stating and thought I had enough threads to keep it safely attached. Turns out I was wrong. Apparently the vibrations over the course of a year or so took their toll, and it worked it's way loose. It came apart as I was headed down the driveway at my parents farm and I had no brakes. I should have checked it at some point, but never thought about it. I shudder to think how that could have easily turned out much worse, especially for other folks that might have been near me had it happened out on the road someplace.
