Ralph, if you grab a top tier automotive wheel bearing grease with extreme pressure additives. There should be enough in the grove to keep from burning up the washers. That's assuming the tolerance and gap is respectable. I'm curious and may give it a go around when I go through one of my clutch units.

Top tier grease has a GC on the spec label. That's the bearing rating, there is a separate rating for other automotive applications right next to it.
