    Same for me but every second piston I swap them.
    I put a very thin coat of greae on them so they wont stick..

    Yes. white lithium grease works (and is recommended I believe). I replace every part according to schedule except for a few that appear to last forever. Gaskets, for example. Grease them up and really I've had no problems.
