Just a bit in the corner of the bag. I haven't tried it with shock proof, I think I would use something else though.

I like your idea....and the price is right for sure. I just like this a bit better.
I have had one of these in my box for over 25 years. Just use your choice of spray cable lube via the red spray nozzle/spout thing that always comes with the lube spray can (the ones you usually cant find after the first time you use it). You stick one end of the spout in the spray can and the other end in the hole in the tool. When you spray the lube in the entire cable sheath is pressurized. Just keep spraying until you see a bit of lube come out the bottom of the cable.
I am still going to try your set up just for kicks though!

There is another version of this same tool on the market. I forgot where I got it since I have had it for some time now, and that is the only one that will fit on a HD clutch cable and fit correctly.
Like I said using the Dri-Slide is a much better option for the type of cable we are talking about in this case....a HD one.
So little of the lube would get into the tranny, I seriously doubt that it would "contaminate" the trans lube.
