I replaced the front shocks last summer but the lower bolts keep loosening up. I keep thinking that I��ve got the bolt pretty tight but this is the third time I have to tighten them. Should I use some type of thread locking compound to keep the bolt from backing out? ------------------ Ed S. 68 S-code FB GT 4spd(now C6)/3.25 PS PDB 68 J-code(now 289) Cp Sprint"B" C4/3L00-9" PDB PS AC 99 F150 XLT Ext/cab, 4X4, 5.4L, 3L55

I would. They have some that are removable,so you can take it apart again.

I would say so. I think you should find the torque spec too.
