On the final robot we did grease it but this was before we saw this problem. After seeing what happened I m going to go back and ultra lube it. Assembly wise I m quite sure they were aligned properly and there were no mistakes there.
Everything happens fast in FIRST and Shift happens. Have fun and hope to see you at nationals.
