I am going to install my Tein HA's next week and I was wondering what every uses to keep theres all shinny. I have heard many diffrent susgestion from wd40, dielectric (silicone) grease, lithium grease, anti Seize... So what is everyone using.

Problems I see with the ones I mention.

WD40, Turn greasy and collect alot of dirt and salt making rust happen almost more.
Dielectric grease. Great water shield but same problem with the wd40.
Lithium grease, have no idea what it is lol
Anti Seize. Would it protect against water?

get some PR04 i think thats what it is called. it is a coating that you put on that will help prevent rust. Its like 22 bucks for a pint.

What parts did you wanna keep shiny? Threads? Shock Body?

I think you shouldn't worry about it. Do what I do, every three weeks I check my suspension assembly, bushings, tie rods, axles, clean rims front and back, check for leaks, and wipe down everything with Castrol Super Degreaser (purple and black bottle).

But then again I only have agx's with GC coilovers which is crap compared to HA's.

that castrol super cleaner is some strong stuff...it eat's through aluminum...late

^ not really. although it is a very tuff cleaner. WD40. grease and degrease as needed to keep build up off. take awhile to get really dirty anyways.

I just want to keep the threads clean (because they rust like hell real quick) How long would Anti seize last on them?
