The Strange should come ready to go as is including fluid and everything. It certainly wouldn't hurt to attach a grease gun and check to see if it could take more grease.

Enjoy. What gear did you get? I stopped by a Ford dealer with my daughter today. She was interested in a new Mustang. The sales guy asked me if I wanted to trade in my TA. I told him I'd think about it when the 'stangs get some power, yeah right. He asked how much HP I had. I quote him fwhp of about 378. I used fwhp since that's how the dealerships advertise HP anyway. He told me 380 HP was dangerous. I just chuckled to myself as I'm one of the lower powered on this site.
