If the threads are stripped, Loctite may hold it for awhile but there's a good chance the bolts will still come out. Just keep an eye on it.

I hope this is a long term solution for you and you don't have any other issues man! Keep us updated.

Good luck, but if the bolts would turn and not tighten I can't see how Blue Loctite would last.

yeah this is just a temporary fix. Although I like the sound of no mufflers and so do my neighbors lol I got tired of it so I used blue loctite. Ive gone over alot of bumps now and some railroad tracks and its still holding no vibrations. Even hit some bumps on highway at 60+. I'm just weighing my options seeing which would be cheaper to either buy the tools needed or just take it to shop and it cost $$$ to fix. I plan on getting new mufflers anyway so its going to have to get fixed.
