Input and Output Shaft Seals -- grease or not?

My input shaft seal was leaking on my 99 Box 5 spd trans so I'm replacing the input shaft seal and o-ring. As long as the trans is out, figured I'd replace the output shaft seals as well since they're 21 years old.

Question: When installing the new shafts do they go in dry or do you lubricate the inside shaft seal with trans fluid or grease? If grease is recommended, what type?

Assuming "dry" since I searched the forum and the 101 projects book didn't specify as far as I could tell...

However, appreciate the input from experts here. Pls advise.
