Even with loctite, the locking collars can still come loose due to vibrations flowing through the suspension. I've added loctite twice now after rechecking their tightness and finding one had come loose. I'm only 4 mos into mine so far, though. Also, for a lowered car on an alignment rack, it is very difficult to reach both the inner and outer locking nuts, let alone to make adjustments. It isn't feasible to remove components to align it, and a standard alignment shop won't have the tools to reach in there to make adjustments. Until recently, there wasn't a single competent shop in my town that could tune aftermarket suspension - including alignments, so finding an alternative shop wasn't feasibly an option. It's a big issue for a lot of people without access to a shop that can handle tuning aftermarket suspension. I avoided upgrading certain components until a shop finally opened that could handle it.
