I'm not sure whether these are meant to go in dry, both GDU and wheelhub sides, or should I apply some anti seize? If so what products do you folks use?

@rojid - G'day from Tassie.  I've always used copper anti-seize on these and will continue to do that unless someone mentions something better here.  I think any 'ant-seize' on joints like this makes sense - so if you've only got Nickel antoi-seize that would be OK too.

I use a bit more on the outer end than I do on the end that goes into the GDU (on that end I use just a thin film)... my thinking is that I don't really want too much in the GDU, whereas it doesn't really matter too much if I get a bit 'fling out' of the outer end into the upright casing.
