Default Installing foot pegs

Finally getting around to putting highway pegs on my Ultra, went with the Skull design. What do you reccomend, blue or red loctite? Any suggestions on making it easier or placement of pegs. As usual the HD instructions cause me more confusion than clarity.

Use the Blue Loctite.

I replaced my pegs with footboards. The instructions said to used the Blue that came with the footboard brackets.

Blue. If you have to ever adjust them, you wont be able to break the bolt loose if you use the red unless you heat it first.
