   What type of threadlock should be used on the cam ladder retaining bolts? Id always used red in the past but thought Id check.
   
   Cheers!

   never bothered to put thread lock on them, tbh i have considered using wingnuts the amount of times theyve come in and out, however i spose if you are insistant on using thread locker, 240's would be ok, just not sure if it would want to putt the thread out as its only into ally...

   Haynes said to put threadlock on them, and theyre only torqued to something like 7lbft so assumed theyd need it.

   normal blue stuff I guess, though I think the heat would render it useless anyway.
   
   don't recall there being any threadlock on them at all when stripping them down.

   I didn't threadlock mne when I did them dude.
   
   I then put it back together, and gave it megadeath for 5,000 miles, it's been sweet so far.
