If you're referring to the lower shock screws, I put like a 1/2" x 5-40 screw in the open shock mount hole. The head of the second screw helps keep the actual shock screw from backing out. This is on the A-arms. I have screws covering all 4 shock mount screws

If you're referring to the upper shock mounts......I can't help there. I've never seen/hear of a problem there. Sorry
