I bought some control arms from UPR. UPR did not say what to torque down the bolts to (no instructions) should it just be the stock settings? they also mentioned about some sort of caution about when you are tightening the axel end of the control arm. the tech rep was not to clear on that. Would it be a good idea to throw some red loctite on those threds also? just for a little bit of added insurance. Hopefully with this upgrade I will not be hopping all the way down the track.

here is that i bought:

You should use the stock torque settings for the control arms. Red Loctite wont hurt them at all, but I thought the nut were nylock.

Torque them to stock, but you will not require any loctite. The nylocks will not come loose.
