Default replacing shifter rod bushings ..... 914-6

tail shifter .... this is my second time for this. I made the fatal mistake by lubing them with regular grease, that slowly disintegrated them, hense doing them again. Do we lube them at all ? or leave them dry ?
Thanks
Brad

See if you can get the upgraded bushings from Tangerine Racing or Patrick Motorsports. Ask them what type of lube to use, and make sure that your rubber dust boot is on good (at bulkhead).

I think a silicone grease like Dow-Corning 111 is OK.
