Loctite on Swingarm Sliders (spools)?
So i just got my swingarm spools in the mail yesterday (Shogun Carbon S5) and i was wondering if it is necessary to put loctite on them before i screw them in? I tried searching and the only thing i could find was a DIY on the Shogun Crash Kit in which he DID put loctite on his swingarm spools. He never said if it was necessary or if it was just an added precaution. Thanks!

Couldn't hurt to add some loctite on those. If they do loosen, it will be noticeable when you go to lift the bike, so it's perhaps not as critical as other bolts. But it's still a good idea.
