thanks David, but the wet and dry was for a heavily gouged enter bush
and just to take the sharp edges off. I won't be taking it to the shaft anytime soon. All the old grease finally came out and the bearings are moving freely. I'll be getting replacements for if possible as soon as possible. The only ones that worry me to get out are the press fitted ones in the RA and Dec.
Yeah that's what I thought, regreased??? I don't think so. Original grease from 7 years ago more like it.
