AC lines backing off compressor

This is a problem I am having with all of my recent AC installs:

Both the Suction and pressure lines seem to loosen up after a few thousand miles, then you loose the AC then you are hot. And El Paso, TX is a different kind of HOT.

I this super vague memory of staking the nuts.
Is there another solution? Do I just need to make the nuts SUPER tight? I am quite worried about running into problems over tightening the steel nuts on the aluminum compressor.

Thanks!

Andrew
