In my experience Haynes manuals are of very limited use.

As I have to buy grease anyway, I'll go for the Dow-Corning stuff. I use their specialised products for other non-bike related jobs and have a lot of faith in them.

RRG for rubber, G-3407 for the pins, maybe a trace of copper grease for the piston/shim interface.

Anybody know if pointy calipers fit curvies?
