Issue with Mirage Drive

After a long day on the water, I went to remove my Mirage Drive but couldn't pull it out for some reason.  I finally reached under my kayak and noticed the long bolt that holds my fins to the MD was sticking out half way.  I pushed it back in and was able to pull my drive out, like normal.  Has anyone ever experienced this issue and if so, how did you fix it?  I'll take pictures tonight when I get home, if needed. 

Bolt? Or Shaft?...pictures would be helpful. Standing by.

Shaft.

Good video on Mirrage Drive maintenance...

Thanks for the vid Sonny but not the issue I'm having.  If you were to install the MD, the long shaft I'm talking runs horizontally, from bow to stern.  The shaft in this vid runs vertically. 

Found the issue after watching this vid:


The shaft i'm talking about is installed from 0:44-1:20 and the screw I need to find/tighten is installed at 1:53.  I'm hoping that screw is still in place and all I have to do is tighten it...

Ah, that makes total sense...hint...loctite and try not to over tighten.

If Allen says loctite, then go home and put on some f$&*&in loctite Jason! . Sorry you had the problem, if you ask Chad hell just say that his paddle works fine! 

I had that happen to mine before, I put the lock screw back in with just a Dab of blue loctite, don't use red.
Never had problem again.

When people say Locktite, I always ask what color?  blue seems to be the standard and and can be undone,
