[TR] TR3A Throw Out Bearing Question

[Randall]

I like Dry Moly for the splines and where the carrier rides on the front cover. It doesn't collect dirt and get sticky the way grease does.
I do use a light smear of whatever is handy while pressing the bearing onto the carrier.
And ordinary grease from the gun for where the shaft rides in the bushings. I also added grease zerks so the shaft can be lubed from time to time. (I forget the change point offhand, early gearboxes already have zerks but my TR6 box didn't).
