I am getting ready to install my axles and I am wondering if I should lube the splines of the stub axle before I insert them into the hubs?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) You got it. I mean, that's just my own opinion, but I've always wondered why the factories don't do such things. Seems like there's never any kind of anti-seize on any parts that were intended to be serviced. Parts with splines seem to be the very worst in the "stuck" department. Like I said, everything else that I don't want coming off always gets threadlock. Not sure how you guys do it in the A&P world.
