I think that the zerk to grease the TO bearing is a perfect way to sling
grease on your clutch.  

I would not do it.

Is there a super heavy-duty Ford racing TOB?

John- the knee has plenty of play but I like the zerk idea, now instead of
grease I need a substance to take up the slack in the knee.Maybe some blue
silicone that will setup but be pliable enough to allow use. A zerk on the
TO
bearing is a great idea . I'm told old Ford ones had a zerk and Dave Munroe
has checked and reports that there is room to get a hose or tube and fitting
thru the clutch arm hole to grease the bearing. I'm planning on starting at
a
Ford dealership, then the Mustang guys to try to find an old type. I plan on
calling Tom Hall tonight as I'm told he recommends a Centerforce TO bearing
and I know he has a good reason and too there was a part number, so it might
be one that is hydraulic and does away with our slave cylinder. I will know
later.
THANKS for the kneezerk idea. LOL

To,  TonytheTiger,

To eliminate the noise, you can drill and tap it with a 1/8 pipe tap and 
insert a Zerk fitting. Then give it a few shots of grease.

That's for the knee problem of course.
