mybe I'll just take my nuts off, drill small holes from one flat to another as in across a corner and safty wire they in place like I did on aircraft while I was a mechanic. Can not come loose then reguardles of torque or wear.
If the bolts stretch, the nuts will still be loose - they won't back off however. But drilling them will allow water (and salt if you travel in the winter) to enter and rust the bolts from the inside.
