Sights came loose

I have Truglo TFO Sights installed on my XD9SC. After about 1000 rounds, both front/rear sights decided to become loose at the same time. I had a springer precision installed my sights for me but I don't want to spend shipping again so I was thinking about tighten/ loctite it myself.

Any suggestion on how to measure/ align the sights before I put loctite on?

there should be centering marks on the slide for the front sight, and then borrow a laser boresighter to adjust the rear one then lock em down.

Check with Springer.

On my gun there are two lines that I used for aligning them. I just made sure both sights where evenly spaced within the two lines. I don't have a pic but they look something like this except there was more space in between the lines.

I had the same problem.

I loctited the front in.
Slide it off, (From right to left) clean it good with a degreaser.
Add green loctite.
Slide back to center (Align the markers).

Then drift the rears until center.
