Loosening bolts/screws

After reading another post about the AC bolts loosening up, we decided to check ours. Our AC unit was actually down about 3/4" on one side. We tightened the bolts, but it wasn't easy because the two front ones weren't accessible without drilling a couple of access holes through the plastic. Now I'm wondering what other things have loosened up that we're not aware of.

    Ditto.

    I also recommend removing the bolts and putting Blue Loctite on them.

    I did that after my A/C bolts loosened up the second time.
