rebuilding my 1974 TR6 front suspension with a Roadster
Factory complete kit. I have always used bearing grease
on the lower trunnions. I am wondering what the latest
consensus is on oil versus grease. Any thoughts will be
greatly appreciated. Thanks Harry M.</span><br>

<p>You'll be fine using any good, modern grease. Back 60, 70 years
ago oil was specified because it stayed a liquid, while greases
common to the era would often harden, get waxy and no longer
flow. So they wouldn't keep the parts lubricated. Not an issue
these days. We used to use a blue. lithium based marine grease at
Bailey's back before Mike retired. Might have been a Sta-Lube
product, I don't rightly recall. The perils of getting older!</p>
