Squeeky throwout bearing, soulution w/out pulling tranny?

Hey guys, well after installing my 5th gen clutch and fidanza flywheel my throwout bearing squeeks as I let out my clutch right before it grabbs, now i know there is no grease fittings on the bearing but i think it needs alittle. Now instead of pulling the tranny again i was thinkin of taking out my slave cylinder, pulling the boot off the clutch fork and i should have a nice little path to stick a grease gun in threw my tranny and just dab alittle on the bearing, wut do u guys think? anyone try this? You think that boot will pull off easy?

its worth a shot, though the angle might be a little difficult to get the grease gun into there and close to the throwout bearing, its better than having to take off the trans. if you cant get it like that then you will have to take off the trans and do it correctly to avoid potential damage. did you install a new bearing when you changed your clutch?

I don't think placing grease on the TOB will stop it squeaking... but that's just my opinion, I could be wrong...
