Maybe that has since changed but my comments are based on a discussion I had one LCI Tech and three LCI documents he sent me two years ago when I was having issues.
Here is the section on System Maintenance from the Owbers manual and even though it says "gear tracks", the Service / Rebuild Manual and Troubleshooting Manual do not mention lubricating the gib, bearing block or V-rollers as part of installation procedure, regular maintenance or troubleshooting.

In this video LCI does not discuss lubing the gibs. Tons of independent videos do however. IMHO the gibs need lube. The tracks do not. And yes, Judge, I don’t think it’s a matter of “if” they will fail. Only “when”. And lubing the gibs may extend the when.
