I do agree. If it's clean when applied and torqued properly, it's not coming loose. I still want a clipdr bob wrote: Fri Jul 03, 2026 11:29 amI have a lot of trust in Loctite, assuming the prep and application are perfect. Some Stud & Bearing Mount with proper primer should be sufficient, knowing it will take some serious heat to get it to release if/when you decide to replace the ball joint next time.PSU_Crash wrote: Thu Jul 02, 2026 8:13 pmI have the same questions. It seems like a great idea, but it needs to stay put. It must have a stake or clip somewhere, right? Loctite is great, if you trust itdr bob wrote: Thu Jul 02, 2026 5:24 pm How is the ball-joint secured in the arm? Loctite or staked? Get spare ball-joints while you are there.
New bushings in the control arms at the same time?![]()
