I'm replacing the front control arm bushings and ball joints. Im using stock bushings from Auto Zone. Do I grease anything up on these bushings or the bolt?

I usually dunk the bolt in some anti seize before I put it back in the hole. This way they won't rust in there and if you need to take them out again it will be easier.

I got one with the bolt frozen in the inner core of the bushing. I think a may just take the cut off wheel to it and buy a new bolt.
