Default Suspension install which loctite red or blue

Hey,

I'm going to be installing my new lowering springs and struts/shocks and was wondering which loctite you guys used.

Thanks.

Use blue. Honestly you probably don't need any at all if you know how much to tighten a bolt but if you're unsure use blue. Red is only for permanent applications takes heat to break red not something you will want to do.

Just put one small dot of blue on all your bolts. Don't use red unless you like using a torch to take bolts off. Some kid on these forums used red locktite on his oil drain plug last year to keep the plug from backing out haha.
