My new Mopar UCA was delivered yesterday (found it online for $312-not bad!), and I will be installing it this weekend. My only question is whether I should put Loctite or anti-seize on the bolts when installing the new one. Suggestions?
Nope, not necessary for either Loctite or anti-seize.
There IS Loctite on the bolts that hold the balljoint fitting to the differential - there are 3, 22mm bolts there that you shouldn't have to remove. The bolt holding the balljoint in place will probably be a bit stubborn as the threads are exposed to the elements. The outer 15mm bolts go up into the body and don't need Loctite either. And the two holding the parking brake cables will come right out and can't be 'Loctite-d' anyway.
Let us know how the project came out for you!
