Yes, use antiseize all over the threads and the rear camber kit. You should have a camber kit. Also, you might need an upper mount bearing if you have an 02+
sorry about these questions I know they have probably been answered before but when I get a chance to go online its not for a long time and most of the time its really slow it takes forever to search (im in Iraq right now)
I have an 02 Ex coupe... will I need that upper bearing?

I reccommend cutting the plastic dust covers in the rear, mine bottomed out and ended up rubbed the threads and causing a horrible sound. Save the time, and cut a couple inches off the dust covers that protect the shock rod....
