Yes. When they've rusted, it's too late and you won't have any threads left.

yes, you must put plenty of grease/copperslip or waxoil on the treads and especially under the bottom spring seat on the treads it it will seize up. I put LOADS on mine and it still seized, had to saw a slot in it and crack it off with a hammer and cold chisel - not ideal!
