    I did a search but couldn't find anything.

    I noticed when removing the A-Arms that they had a type of lubricant/anti-seize on the main bolt.

    I was wondering what I should use when reinstalling. I have copper anti-sieze, but wasn't sure if that was correct or not.

    Thanks for any insight.

    Not sure what the potential issues are, but I'd use something like aqua shield on rotating surfaces to avoid squeaks, and maybe some antisieze on the threads? Interested to see what others with more Ferrari experience have to say.

    You do not want any lubricant on the surfaces with rubber bushings. The rubber bushing is not supposed to turn. On the rear outers on a 308 with the sleeve bushings I just use the same grease I use for CV joints.
    Its not a bad idea to put antisieze on the shank of the bolts that go through the rubber bushings so they do not rust in place.

    Awesome man thanks. Yeah the shank was what I was talking about... I noticed when I pulled them that they had some kind of antisieze or something on there.
