For the first setting, maybe at least LockTite blue on the threads for the bottom nuts (would they be anywhere else?), set it up, tighten nuts (ouch), then let the LockTite set.

UH,

Yep, I use blue LockTite on both the lower nuts and (why not?) the upper wing nuts too. In case everyone is not familiar with LockTite it is a liquid applied to the threads that will "glue" the nut to the threaded rod and prevent inadvertent loosing BUT still will allow manually removal at a later date. DO NOT USE THE RED COLORED LOCKTITE as this requires the application of HEAT to remove the fastener!

PS - Why not replace the fasterners with metric nylock (nylon insert) nuts and be done with it?
