Case sleeve installation

I am installing the sleeves in a Case SC after replacing the O-rings at the bottom of the sleeves. What kind of lubricant can I use to help things along. I have installed 2 sleeves with petroleum jelly which seemed to work pretty well. Any concerns with the petroleum reacting with the o-ring? I would hope not being it could be exposed to oil o the bottom side.
 
I was told to use dawn dish soap and that has worked for me. The best mechanic I know keep some KY around for that.
 
Yep that jelly you used can be bad news for the o-rings. Simple dish soap it what I have been told to use and it works just fine
 

KY is a ' Marital aid ' :shock:

O ring lubricant available from a plumbing supplier is excellent for engines and other O ring applications . I suspect it isn't recommended for the ' other ' .
