Yeah I made sure to torque them out as soon as they cooled down from red hot, so they still should have been pretty hot, but I think heat works better when you have nuts stuck to external threads since you get full thermal expansion on the nut and not on the externally threaded bolt. It also appears I did in fact put medium blue loctite as its got the whiteish ashy appearance and usually with the red loctite it stays more of the red color and its more gummy.
Not sure why I didn't have this issue before. Now I can see why people talk about this all the time.
