I never use loctite on them. You will have to remove them to change the belt out on your S/C or serpentine belt on your car if needed.

Dont use loctite. As stated above, you need to remove the procharger sometimes, this is not a permanent attachment. Just get them as tight as you can by hand. Ive never had a problem with those bolts coming loose.

X2...no problems with them loosening up. I only use loctite on the pulley bolt (iirc Procharger says to do this)
