What works for me: 

Front shocks: Grade 8 flatwashers under the bolt heads (no lockwashers), clean threads, blue Locktite, torque to 35ft-lbs 
Rear shocks: Grade 8 flatwashers under the bolt heads, lockwashers under the nuts, (optional) Locktite, torque to 35ft-lbs

Was there a consensus, the last time this was discussed, on the 
torque for the shock mount bolts? My original threads were in good 
shape. 
I want to put flat washers under the lock washers, so that the lock 
washers don't dig into the alloy......opinions?
