Can You Use Loctite On The Andersen 5th Wheel Hitch Set Screws
Question:
On my Anderson ultimate 5th wheel hitch I have experienced having to re torque the 4 set screws after about 250 miles. Can I use loctite, to solve this problem.

Helpful Expert Reply:
I spoke with Andersen and their tech stated that you can use some Loctite # LT37420 to help prevent the set screws on your Andersen Hitch # AM3200 from needing to be retorqued as often. He also stated you may need to replace the coupler, which you can get directly from them.
