Clutch lube points??
So I’ve searched all threads got moly-paste,extreme pressure grease, and DC111(for clutch arm ball socket bushing) but no one points out(maybe with little arrows) where and how much to use!! Butter lube,pea size,etc..etc. Thanks, in advance!!

Get the spline grease and put it on with a tooth brush brush it into the splines of the disc and shaft,
put a small dab into the pilot bearing and a smear on the tip of the stub shaft.
Use a dremel to open up the release arm bushing so it will be easier to push onto the ball. put it into hot water before you install it onto the ball.
NOTE put a smear of DC111 into the bushing the release arm will slide over the bushing once its been pressed onto the ball.
I also put grease on the guide tube and the in the groove inside the TOB collar and on the area wher the TOB rides on release arm and put grease on the slave pushrod tip

As Stan says, don't overdue the super sticky grease on the splined shaft or it will sling off, get on the friction discs and cause slippage. Way less is better than even a little bit more. You want to wipe off essentially whatever you can after application which will leave enough to be the perfect amount.

Lube the splines in the clutch disc and the clutch short shaft.
Push the clutch short shaft back a forth through the clutch discs a few times, to spread the lubricant.
Wipe off the excess that comes out past the clutch splines.
Put a dab of lube on the snout of the clutch short shaft, where it sits in the pilot bearing.
Tiny pea sized dab inside the clutch pivot plastic.
Lube the T/O bearing fulcrum (thick washer which does all the actual "pulling"), where it touches the pressure plate.
Smear the outside of the retaining clip, for the fulcrum...just enough to get some lubrication between the fulcrum and the retaining clip, so rust doesn't form there.
Lube the inside of the T/O bearing, where it slides over the T/O bearing snout.
Lube the sides of the T/O bearing where it touches the fork, as well as the pivot surface.
And don't forget a pea sized dab in the fork, where the clutch slave pushrod goes.
Done.
