Thread-loc on upper rear shock bolts?

[Kurt_S]

I had a rather loud clunking in the rear of my '97 TJ last weekend while on the trail and I finally figured out that the upper rear shock bolts on the drivers side had come loose and was banging around. I did a 2.5" lift 3 years ago which is when those shocks would have been installed.

Does anyone use thread-loc (maybe orange or blue?) on those bolts? I checked the other side and sure enough, they were loose too.

Tighten the bolts to the proper torque value.

Torque to spec and it never hurts to use some thread locker unless specified,blue in this case!
