Should the bronze bushings at each end of the clutch shaft be lubricated before putting the shaft back in? I'm talking about the shaft that passes through the bell housing and has the integral fork which moves the throwout bearing.
The bushings have a "waffle-like" pattern on the inside. I assume they are oil-lite type bearings and shouldn't be lubricated, but I want to make sure before I put the transmission back in.
The clutch pedal bracket bushing has a grease fitting and should obviously be lubricated, but the bushing does not have the "waffle" pattern. And, the clutch shaft bushing do not have any means of lubricating them after assembly, so maybe they weren't intended to be lubricated.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
