Hey all,

Just wondering what sort of maintenance is recommended for the steering system? Below is a picture of the part I greased up - it doesn't say it in the manual but this seems to be the main moving part of the steering system:

It's kind of hard to explain which is why I included the picture. I greased the solid rod circled in red that slides into the sleeve. Possibly unnecessary but wondering if anything else is recommended. For what it's worth, this is preventative maintenance - not having any issues.
