I tried to rebuild mine with Moog bushings and bolts and had issues. I ended up with aftermarket LCA's and OEM bolts and I'm happy now.

Definitely agree on the OEM hardware. I bought the Moog hardware but then got the factory pieces and it's night and day between the two sets of hardware.
My local shop price matched the pricing found on Partznet.com
Anti-seize will be helpful but it is designed to resist galling of metal on metal surface and works best on threads. It drys up overtime and may wash out of areas where there is no thread engagement. I'm doing mine this weekend and will use Anti-seize on the threads but a heavy grease on the sleeves and adjusters.
A heavy grease such as a marine grade waterproof type would work well on the bolt shafts and sleeves in the LCA. Cheaper grease would be fine for this application and I can't imagine you would need to purchase an expensive moly based grease if you don't already have it. Molybdenum is not necessary in this application but use whatever you have on the shelf.
Then after its together spray the shit out of it with a lanolin based lube like Fluid Film.
