Just need everyones opinion.

OEM manual states to grease the inner spline on the clutch disc and inner diameter of the throwout bearing.

I thought you wanted to keep the pressure plate and disc as far away from grease as possible.

What do you guys do?

Just use a light coating, you don't have to pack it in there.

-Grease the splines of the clutch.
-The release fork
-Release bearing
-Release fork bolt (the thing with the round head)
-The splines on the tranny

Edit: What kind of grease do you plan to use? The manual specifies Super High Temp Urea Grease PN 08798-9002.

What would the part store equivalant of that be? I've used high temp wheel bearing grease without issue in the past.

 

I just grease up the spline. Not super thick. but just a little more than a light coat so it will get the clutch disk.

i apply a little bit on the throw out bearing.
Generous amount on the release for Pivot ball

I used High temp Grease (Suspension components and Wheel bearings)

 

Lucas makes a nice high temp urea grease. THey call it high temp wheel bearing grease or something like that. It's green and coumes in a 16oz tub for like $5.

Bingo.. thats what i use.. cept the cover is all jacked up aand i dont know who made it.

 

I use supertech high temp grease, that stuff is amazing, its $5 at wal-mart for a nice jar of it!

 

I'm still using the container of Pennzoil wheel bearing grease I bought back in the mid 70's. You just need a light coat.

 

wwooahh WTF? Its still works??
