1) The kit came with a pair of bolts and nuts. Do I use them for the subframe side? The instructions state to reuse OEM bolts at both the knuckle and subframe but then I wonder, why did SPL provide these??
* My gut tells me this is an error. They’re probably issuing the same instructions for both the rod-only package and the set with lockouts.
2) Should I use jam nuts in addition to the Allen bolts? If so, what are the sizes and where can I get a set? With one side having reverse threads, I’m guessing no one local store will have hem.
3) I’ve heard concerns of squeaking in the future so I picked up a can of Amsoil HD-MP. I guess I’ll spray some on after the alignment? Anything else I should do for protection?

factory bolt closest to the tire end of the toe rod and new bolt/nut on the subframe side with the eccentric lockout plate (square) placed in the slot.
