Grease question

[TGriffith]

Hi,

I'm wondering of there are any recommendation on the type of grease to use with my goose neck ball. I've been using a synthetic bearing grease but in the summer it seems to get a bit thin and I'm recoating it more often during a trip.



thanks

I use a thick teflon paste, it stays put and no melting.

Where did you find the teflon and what is it called??

The one I use is called "REESE Teflon Hitch Ball Lube", Part No. 58117. I think I got it at Camping World but it could have been another RV supply place. I've had the 4 oz. container for about 10 years and use it on my 5th wheel pin now. Just a little dab will do ya', like Brylcream for us old timers. I have a teflon plate to lube the rest of the fifth wheel plate.

Walmart, with the Reese hitch products.
