Default Subframe Resinstall

When reinstalling the subframe after new bushings, do I grease or not grease the bolts before they go in and get torqued?

You could put a very small dab of anti-seize on the end of the threads, but not really necessary if they thread in cleanly.

I followed the factory service manual recommendation... "Do not grease Dacromet-type nuts and bolts (aluminum color appearance). Observe tightening torques."

I used new bolts that had the greenish tint coating on them.

Thanks, I missed that in the service manual.
