We need grease in the tranny now?

Best high temp/high pressure grease I've seen yet is sylglide.

NAPA, Carquest; probably O'Reiley's, Advance, Autozone....

Most normally it's used for brake caliper sliders, but it's about the best grease I've seen for demanding applications.

I believe the brake lubricant and the regular Sil-Glyde grease are the same.

But what would you need it for? :?
The OEM bearings and even aftermarket bearings are sealed units, there would be no benefits using any type of grease in the posted above points...

I'd think any extra grease could get onto the friction surfaces and ruin your clutch disc in short order.
