Help - Grease able Pivot Shafts

After the first one broke, I didnt bother putting on the second one. And that actually isn't rust (if we are referring to the second picture I posted), that is the area that was hit with a brass hammer to remove from the Lower control arm assembly from the K-frame.

It does appear like I did, but I think the pivot shaft did stretch to the point that the all the threads ended up in the nut before it broke off. But Yes there was a washer between the nut & K-frame.
