Lubricating clutches during assembly

Hi

When assembling clutches are you using any type of lubricant on any of the moving parts?

Thanks

Designed to be dry. Think about lubricant flinging around at 9,000 rpm's, it would end up on the sheaves and on your belt causing all sorts of problems.

If you remove your primary they say to put a little oil on the bolt threads before installing. Other than that everything is dry.

I oiled my primary once and it failed 500 mile later. bushing got so tight it would not shift.

I was thinking more of a dry lube on the pins and on the end of the springs to assist with any bind

No lube zero nada nothing

Glide washers work well in spring perches. TP sells them.
