    I'm assembling something someone else took apart... 25 years ago, so I have a couple questions.
    I looked at my manual and still not clear so here we go.
    Clutch control tube ball joints, dry or grease on assembly?
    One side has a seal, spring, washer, and felt, what goes on (in) the other side?

    I packed mine with grease, no zerk fittings. The old tube (no zerk fittings) that I removed was filled with grease too. Adding a zerk fitting is a great idea :)

    Greasing.

    Interestingly, that picture shows felt and washer on only the non-spring side. Since the kit they sell has two felts and washers, I'm sure both sides is the intent.
    My tube has no zerks but it looks like a good upgrade so I'll throw some in.

    Thanks guys.

    That should finish up my transmission situation, then onward to brakes.
