Yes because you do mot want to over tighten the bolts down too much and they can vibrate losse easier that way. Use blue, red is too hard to get off, and never use green, youll have to cut it off then.

When you go to tighten the arm bolts down, take the shocks off and raise the a arms and see if they fall down fast and smooth, If they don't then they are too tight
