Hi,

I used anti seize and red threadlocker on the bolts. I sprayed everything several times for a week before hand. I live in PA, so yes on the rust. In fact so much rust that one of the TABS had begun to split due to the rust eating a hole through the outside steel shell. I didn't have too much of a problem, I thought I would though. Just make sure you have plenty of Pblaster on hand while you're doing the job. If something is super tight, just spray it wait a few minutes and proceed.

Good luck,

Travis
