Never-seeze. I am planning on doing the tie rod ends soon.

Just in case I couldn't get mine off, roverguy.com has the entire rods used for $40, DAP sells it brand new for $95 minus the ends

I would just get some HD rods that have changeable tre's on each side. I was looking at the ones from rover tracks, they are solid and use the tre's from a d90. Then next time you have a problem you won't have to replace the bar again. Here is the link
