Are there ARP2000 studs available for this application? They would help with the stretching issue. Thread locker would be another good idea for sure.

Checking mine this morning.
 
The pictures clearly show the remaining studs have different levels of thread perch, I too would pull and replace all four. Opinions differ about different retaining methods, I use the studs shown below, the Torx fitment allows a decent install as opposed to locking nuts together, with the holes clean I do Loctite them in place. IMO as the hole is exposed to grease/oil this stops any migration down the thread and perhaps helping them work loose. I also use locking washers and the Nyloc nuts, mine were done 10th April 2010, My LC 80 thread. and are still in there and have never worked loose, I am not complacent though, as above they are checked before every trip involving heavy off road work, never had a customer back with a lost stud either
