Hi! Mike
Simply whatever type is already in the gun ! My bushes happen to be very
well aligned so have never known them drag but with the grease I know
they aren't wearing ! However it is necessary to wipe out excess grease
---From inside ......extra weight and all such !!!!!!!
NB the grease nipple needs to be on a tube extension and can only exit
at about 10 o'clock aft and above the tailplane drive plate.
I have also included aerosol lube tubes to each of the four tufnol
bearings under the seats. I needed them originally to free them off
with brasso due to excessive drag then had to flush them out so left
them for future greasing from a Silicone PTFE food lube can.

Bob,
What type of grease do you use in that setup? Did it make a big
difference in
the smoothness or ease of movement?
