Default Sticking yoke

In my Seneca the bushing sort of floats and articulates as the shaft
changes angles as it is pulled aft. On the left side it doesn't and I
think it is a bit of a binding problem for me. Very minor and keeping it
lubed seems to fix it.

When doing steep turns, I noticed that there is a little resistance to pitch
changes on the yoke. It seems it binds a little in the bearing through the
panel. Does anyone have a suggestion for the type of lubricant I could use
on this? Do they make anything for this purpose?
