Default Rennbay Ball joint ?

Hey guys hope someone has a quick answer for this...
I received my Track/performance rebuild kit with the aluminum bronze bushing and the directions state installing the upper bushing, but doesn't mention applying any grease prior to installing. In the instructions from the delrin kit it outlines using the lube included in the kit to grease the pocket and bushing.

Question is...do you use any lube on the aluminum bronze bushings?

BTW- I'm trying to get this done tonight.

YES, grease is a good thing..

BTW the instruction sheets shown on their site are the same for both types of ball joints.

Yeah, I went on the site and saw that... it's just odd the instructions that came with the kit only mentioned greasing the joint after assembly via the fitting and doing so carefully not to over pressure the lock ring.

Anyway, it's all back together!!

Thanks
