blue thread locker on inner tie rod - to use or not to use?
So I'm in the process of changing my inner tie rods. The question is should I use thread lock on the inner rod or not.

Granted the old one when removed had no trace of thread lock on it.

Lots of good info on Youtube, lots of bad info on Youtube.
