guys, I recently ordered a set of brand new lower control arms. Just have a quick question about what I should use to lubricate the bushings before installation and if there is something to use to lubricate as preventitive maintenance after they are installed. Links would be very helpfull. Thanks again!!!!!

Other than putting anti-sieze on the bolt where it goes though the metal sleeve (to keep it from rusting in if it ever needs to be removed in the future), there is nothing else to do. There is no lubricant or other preventive maintenance that can be done to keep them from degrading.
