That is the question!

I need a definitive answer on whether to lube these or not. I have a 1973 Charger wiper linkage with the nylon bushing inserts and I have seen people saying different things here. It seems to me you would want to lube as that linkage is very tight dry and squeaky but some have said the linkage will pop out of the bushings if lubed.

I tried to go cheap and bought the assorted Dorman HELP bushings set but the bushing was just a tad too large inside the ball socket and was much easier to press the ball joint into. Of course, it popped right out when I turned the wipers on. I have OEM bushings on the way and I want to get my wipers working again!

Anybody here have an official answer here? Maybe somebody with a FSM or knowledge of what the factory did? I just don't see why this should be so difficult....

Thanks as always!
