It's a 94 I'm pretty sure. I'm working on it for a friend. i really hate allen head bolts. I worked for the better part of a hour and couldn't get one to budge. I am working on my back so it sucks. my corded electric impact won't budge it.

If a bolt is torqued correctly it has a preload on it and will not come loose. The most critical bolt or nut on a thread in your car is the connecting rod ones. They are never loctited, they are oiled or lubed before installation also they are the most highly stressed bolt there is and endure many cycles of stress, especially if the driver likes to rev to red line.
There are some rotating bolted parts I do Loctite but I see no reason to Loctite CV's to a flange, I have never had a VW cv loosen up. What ever you Loctite when you remove the bolts or nuts you should always clean the threads before reinstalling even if using more Loctite the next time.
