I'm doing a removeable front clip

So if using rivnuts or welded nuts, what do you recommend for keeping the bolts(5/16” or 1/4” grade 5) from vibrating loose? Blue loctite? I have several panels that use one or the other.
Thanks

30 ft/lbs hand torque. 3/8" bolts and nuts. many times I'll use unistrut spring nuts {spring removed} to weld on. easily accessible from my work supplies.

It can be a very big deal. It isn't something to do without any consideration at all. In this particular application it probably wouldn't matter. Unless the welding heat makes the nuts used so soft that they easily strip. Then it's a big problem.

I'll just send it and move along. No need to overthink things. Just get it done and go drive and go fishing. If it doesn't work, I'll do it better next time.
Do as you do if it works for you. I'll just go drive with a few bolts holding it in place.
