Default Recommendations for Threadlock?

I'm asking cause apparently the stuff I had sucked. I keep finding screws trying to back out, so I'll take any advice here, since I have to strip the truck down and install a hexheads kits, I might as well try some other threadlocker.

go to your local auto supply store or home depot and pick up some permatex blue (medium strenght threadlock) or some red(high strenght auto grade threadlock). get both of them because red is used on drivetrain parts and use the blue to hold engine mount screws or chassis screws. ill try to find some links for you

Hey,

I just use the Tamiya blue medium. Has never failed me, some of the screws have been in there for months without loosening.

Cheers
