when you convert to nylon swingarm bushings do you dare lube them with anything either during install of the swingarm bolt or regular maintenance?

are there some lubes which might break down the Nylon compound?

Does x.system still make them? I need some for my 85 T3 again.

Anyone have his email?

I gave mine a light coat of neversieze before putting them in the swinger and the a little inside for the bolt. No problems and they are still in great shape after 2+ years in the bike.
