Hey Leathermang,
How about lug nuts/bolts? I put a little neversieze on 'em. People have told me I am crazy but I have never had a problem in 15yrs. Always torque them to spec. Nothing worse than the local tire chimps with impact guns..... I put neversieze on everything as I am sick of breaking bolts. Upon reflection I think you are right, lightly oiled is the way to go. Some people have differing ideas of "lightly" though. RT
