Default Rear sway bar loose

I was draining diff fluid yesterday and noticed that the top two bolts of my rear sway bar were half out. Anyone notice this before?

Fairly common problem. Torque the bolts to 74 ft. lb. and monitor (nuts to 70 ft. lb.). If they come loose again put some blue threadlock on them.

Probably weren't properly tightened at the factory.
