Default Anti-seize on lug nut studs, why or why not?
With previous experience with an F-250 4x4 (now a true Toyota fan) it is recommended that you do not use any lube on your lug nut studs (mind you that the lug nuts are not completely covered on the older Fords). I am arriving to the conclusion that adding some anti-seize compound to the threads will allow for more accurate torque and less damage to the threads.
I don't see any adverse problems with adding a bit of anti-seize. Thanks in advance for your comments.
