brake caliper rebuild, grease question
 
Not 75/ZT specific but thought to ask the very knowledgeable people on here, so I am doing a full rear calliper rebuild on my 800 and wondered if I need to grease any internals with red grease, will be polishing the parts then giving a light coat of brake fluid to help with corrosion starting till I fill the system with fluid, so any help with the grease question ?
Thanks

I always use Castrol rubber grease but brake fluid should give enough lubrication for assembly and should keep corrosion at bay as long as you keep the inlet hole plugged, as brake fluid will absorb moisture from the air.
