Shift linkage, was Re: Working in the heat!

Well, if they're Teflon lined then no.
Otherwise I'd think they'd need some sort of lubrication, but the underhood environment with all the dust and dirt isn't going to be a good place for any exposed lubrication since it'll catch the dirt and carry it into the bearings.
I'd leave them unlubricated.
Personally I'm using shielded rod ends from McMaster Carr, PN 6058K42.
