I just installed poly bushings on the front end and not the large aluminum nuts that hold on the control ams keep loosening up. I tried locktite, but they still loosen. I was hearing a creaking noise in the front on hard turns and was checking everything and noticed the left front nut loose. At first I thought I forgot to tihgten it. Then the noise came back and I checked again and noticed that three of the nuts were loose. Any suggestions?

Did you check the torque specs prior to tightening? (Loaned my factory manual out, or I would get it for you.) Try red Locktite. Some guys drill them for cotter pins.
