Shucks, there's something ELSE I forgot to mention.

AM Delrin trucks aren't supposed to need lubrication, but they do 
roll a little easier with a small dab of teflon grease in each needle 
bearing socket. Some might wonder if dirt retention would result, but 
I haven't had that problem. I run SHS trucks dry.

Teflon grease is also VERY good on AF Pike Master trucks. Gets rid of 
that annoying squeak. As always, use a plastic-friendly grease, which 
Woodland Scenics, Labelle, and, I assume the stuff SHS uses, are.
