Question Ball joints. anti-seize or loctite???

What should I put on the ball joint where they come in contact with the spindle, mainly the top eccentric adjuster. ???

Boygenius, I'm not 100% sure, but all I did was use a touch of anti-sieze and a Ny-lock nut on the balljoint. I would think that loctite would be a bad idea since those freking things are so hard to get apart anyway.
Just a thought...
Cheers,
Dave

That's what I was thinking. I used a little anti-seize on the tappered parts and I think it will work. I'll know when my car goes for an alignment in a few months.
