Thanks John! Yes I have figured out that the lube they sent is the new part to replace Poly Lube. Its supposed to be good stuff so I will use it. Guess I could have used the Super Lube too since its silicone grease. | ||

Lube That substitute stuff sucks and they stopped using it.You can buy the correct stuff separately.I disagree you can use anything there is no known substitute for maytag polylube. The latest packages of damper pads have the polylube. | ||

If The Pads Are Still In Place And in good condition just relube them, the only thing that makes these damper pads ever fail is they get dry of lubricant and then get torn loose from the pressure.
You don't need the silly brake removal tool to take the brake assembly out. just grab the edge with a large Vice-Grip pliers and smack it with a hammer and that's all it takes to loosen the brake, it works much better than the brake tool and you are less likely to get hurt when the brake tool slips off.
