I had the same issue with the front axle on my LS. I got some NORDLOCK split wedgelock washers from Fastenal plus some blue Locktite and no more loose bolts. I also replaced all the bolts with new grade 10 at the same time. I wasn't sure it the factory grade 10 bolts were stretching or if was just the regular split ring washers that weren't holding so I elected to replace everything at once and do it up right.
The NordLock washers weren't cheap at $2 each but they did keep the front axle flange from separating. It was always on the left axle but I did up both when I fixed it.
