I'm going to install my Steeda diff bushings inserts soon. I've watched the CJ pony parts and also the Steeda install video. Cjponyparts says put grease on outside of bushings and loctite on the bolts. Steeda video says put grease in the bolts and doesn't mention loctite. Seems like extreme opposites lol. Which should I do?

Probably meaning to grease the none treaded area of the bolt to prevent it from seizing up on the metal insert in the factory bushing. I'd use blue loc tite on the theads to prevent the nut from backing off from vibration.
The grease on the outside of the bushing insert is to help slide it into the stock bushing.

Np, install will be a breeze for you, I'm installing the bmr diff bushing and have to drop the cradle and Sawzall the stock bushings out. I'm holding out on the install until I can pick up a few more goodies for the rear so I can install all at once while the whole cradle is off and be done with it.
