Yes to locktite.  When I remove or reinstall the roll pin I use a flat piece of plastic, or what ever is handy(even a credit card or drivers license will do) and place it on the armrest side of the pin to protect the material while I drive the pin in or out.  This both protects the armrest  and makes it easier to see and drive the pin.  A 1/4in bolt  about four inches long will do the job.
