Hi ListVolks,

I'm replacing the plastic ball halves and shell that
goes into the shifter pivot (mounted on the floor) - -
the Bentley says to lube everything with moly grease.
First question: Is there something better than moly
grease to use these days? Also, I can't quite figure
out from the picture (35-679, pg. 34.5) exactly what
is being measured (distance 'a') - - or (2nd
question), will this be a no-brainer once I get it all
back in? So far I've got the shells back in their
rubber housing and all pushed back into the metal
dealie. Won't be putting the rest in for a day or two,
until things here either dry out or warm up. Thanks,

Gary
