throttle body bracket

If I take a threaded rod and put a nut half way down with red lock tite will it take 25ft/lbs of torquing? or do I use jb weld?

thanks

What are you trying to do? Put a stud into a hole or something?

Put 2 nuts on it and jam them against each other.

Don't outsmart yourself.
