Hello all, I am looking to tighten the loader bolts on the RK24. I was wondering if anyone has seen anything on how tight they need to be. Thanks for any help.

He beat me to it. The FEL bolts that hold the arms to the frame are M16x2.4x45 class 10.9 bolts. 230-280 lb-ft.

Wow Thanks so much. Would you folks put any kind of lock tight on the bolts.

Nope. We don't do it at the Tractor Assembly Centers, I wouldn't do it at home either.

In my opinion, blue thread locker is never a bad thing to do. Now red thread locker, I only use when I never ever under any conceived thoughts would be removing the bolt, or whatever. Thread inserts are one such thing that comes to mind where I would use red thread locker.
My 2 cents worth, consider it worth what you paid for the opinion!
