Loctite and antiseize
Loctite and antiseize
Going to install my coilovers. I'm looking at the how-to installation and so no mention of using blue loctite on the suspension bolts.
Did any of you apply loctite to the bolts? Regarding the camber bolt, I read that it's recommended that you apply anti-seize to it. Do you guys recommend that?
Lastly, I ordered KW V3 and I was wondering how the camber bolt should be installed. I am looking for some negative camber so I can drive to the alignment shop with less chances of rubbing. Thank you

I use anti-seize on every bolt that sees the elements and high temps. Nice insurance against stripping, snapping, or seizing a bolt when you go to remove the parts later on. I see no need for Loctite on suspension bolts; torque them properly and you're good to go.
For the following image, were you able to get a torque wrench there to torque the 14mm nuts in the rear suspension? It looks difficult to get a torque wrench in there.
