Protecting suspension bits from rust?

Hey everyone,
This is kind of a n00b question, but I haven't really seen it discussed, Last year I bought Agency Power swaybar endlinks, and they were nice, but after a Chicago winter, they're all rusted and seized, so I just received new endlinks (from a different company) and I don't want them to rust away too, does anyone have any suggestions on how to protect them?
I was thinking of spraying them with WD40 or something fairly regularly, is there any other stuff that's better?

Thanks!

You could always try "Rinoguard" or spray-on rubber to protect it.

Just make sure that you clean under your car as often as you clean the rest of it. Maybe some touch-up paint? Sounds like a lot work to me, though...

I use WD40 when my endlinks squeaks on my Mazda 6i and the squeak disappears. When i lowered the 6, the squeaks never came back. I guess, lowering the car makes the squeaks away...lol
