Learning how to properly lubricate your hitch will help ensure that you get a lifetime of exceptional towing safety. Our new video shows how easy it is to lubricate the Equal-i-zer hitch and the benefits of consistent maintenance. Proper Lubrication 1. Remove tension from the spring arms by lifting them off the L-brackets. 2. Swing the spring arms sockets until the spring arms are perpendicular to the tow vehicle. 3. Remove the spring arms from the hitch head sockets. 4. Using a high-quality cloth rag, wipe clean the friction surface areas of the sockets, top and bottom. 5. Using Equal-i-zer High-Performance Lubricant (or a quality bearing grease), place a pinhead-sized drop onto the top of the socket. 6. DO NOT use a degreaser such as WD-40 on the hitch sockets. 7. Spread the lubricant with your finger or rag until it covers the entire surface. 8. Repeat this for the underside of the socket. 9. Insert the spring arms into the socket and rotate the socket back and forth. 10. DO NOT lubricate the L-brackets or spring arms. 11. A well-lubricated hitch head will dramatically reduce the amount of hitch noise while driving. A common mistake is lubricating the L-brackets where the spring arms rest. The L-brackets rely on friction to create two of the four integrated sway control points. Lubricating the L-brackets reduces friction which in turn lowers the amount of sway control achieved. The better solution for increased longevity, maximum performance, and a quieter ride is the Equal-i-zer Sway Bracket Jacket. www.equalizerhitch.com/store/hitch-accessories/sway-bracket-jacket-pair?sku=95-01-5150
