    Just put a little grease on each end and you will be fine.

          Are you lubing axles with steel or aluminum spools? Or both?

              I always lube the axles regardless of material type, its just good practice to make sure everythign moves as freely and possibly. Plus the grea wont damage anything if it mixes in with the gear lube.
