Default PC V install question
Back in 05 when I installed the PC III in my 05 Fat Boy I could swear I remember the directions saying to use dielectric grease and doing so.

Now I'm installing a PC V in my 09 Fat Boy, and the PC V instructions do not say to use it.

Are you folks that installed the PC V using dielectric grease?
