Morning Folks, I am replacing & shimming up the top swivel pin on my 1985 90. Other than a bit of grease on the pin to aid insertion should the housing be greased up much? There is obviously grease (one shot) in the housing. Can't seem to find much info on it, cheers & thanks John.
 
I prefer to stick with EP80 oil in the housing myself, splashes about and feeds the pin some through the hole in the bush base. However many get on fine with the one shot grease.
It would be good to give the bush and the the thrust washer that goes in the bottom a soak in oil for few hours before fitting.

Ok, thanks for that, that's all I need to know, Cheers.
