yea just put a bunch of grease on the springs so they don't vibrate.

I got a tube of Mystic grease from autozone and put about half a tube in each side. The shop manuel says something like 14grams per spring I think.

[zwieblekopf]

14 grams wouldn't be very much. I hope it's a small tube you are talking about

If you put too much on they will come out all over the lower legs and mabye out the top clamp where you tighten them down...

14 grams wouldn't be very much. I hope it's a small tube you are talking about

I'm pretty sure the sevice manual said 14grams on the springs and some on the bushings. I just squeezed about half a tube onto each leg assembly and installed. I didn't bust out the digi to weigh up some grease

Mystic JT6 Grease this was the stuff I used

[96Justin]

yeah I just used all purpose grease and put a generous amount on....



its not under heat, not under supreme friction so any grease will work
