Need help with front end lubricant

[Vito Pacione <vito@argohouston.com>]

I am trying to assemble the front end of my TR-6. The manual states that
you need to lubricate the felt washer behind the front hubs, but it does
not say with what.

I assume that to soak in, you would want an oil as opposed to a grease, but
an oil would not last forever. I would think that an oil impregnated with
graphite would be the best solution, but does anyone know what the manual
intended?
