Yes, soak them in oil overnight, phosphour bronze is porous and will absorb oil, always a good way to start their working life. Lucas and various others use p/ bronze for bearings/bushes on starter motors, and they always pre soak in oil before fitting, and remember how long they last without any further lubrication:))

Green1:
Oh well I'm sure mine will be fine I grease them every 1000 mile or so.

This what i did as you tighten the nut it pushes the small socket against the bush and out through the large socket


The swingarm ones need a bit of heat and are buggers to get out
