I have not done the greasing on the new shaft yet but will be installing it on tuesday using the same method for greasing it. If you push the clutch along the input shaft in the center at the splines it would slide but pushing on one outer edge would apply the side load and cause it to bind when dry.

Thanks very much for all your replies and help. I was doing some searching on the proper grease to put on and get multiple different answers. I honestly think that's what's going on. Any strain at all on the desk when trying to push it back-and-forth on the spines it binds easly. It seems like a little bit of grease would help that a lot
