Default adjustable suspension and street use

Anyone have problems keeping the locking nuts in place for street use? Mine keep comin loose, im thinking of using a bit of locktight to keep it from movin. Any other suggestions? Every thing is adjustable and rod ended under the car LCA, Panhard bar, Sway bar, Tq arm, the works

Blue loctite once you have everything adjusted to your preference. The blue loctite won't allow the lock nuts to back off from vibration but you can loosen them in the future. BLUE not red lol. Red loctite can require the use of a torch to loosen if its been there long enough

I've never had to use a torch on anything I put red loctite on... it has required a breaker bar before though. But yeah, the blue loctite is what I put on all my jam nuts.
