Those studs aren't very strong. I use the 'Two Finger Torque' method for something like that.

Two Finger Torque = Place thumb on head of ratchet, place pointer & bird fingers together on the handle about 2" (width of two fingers) away from the head of ratchet. Tighten till snug. Even gorilly handed fellers will have a hard time breaking a stud using that method.

Alternate Two Finger Torque = drink plenty of two finger tequila before you get started & then you won't care that you broke the stud & can't replace it.

BTW, Locktite is NOT recommended on those fasteners since eventually you'll prolly need to remove it again.
