Recommended Replacement 5th Wheel Lube Disk

Published 01/26/2018

Question:

The lippert never fail 5th wheel lube disk will not stay on the pin. It seems to fit fine, but it just isnt tight enough to hold position. What should I do? I feel like I shouldnt have to monkey with this thing at all while Im hooking up.

The Lippert Never Fail Whisper Disk Lube Plate for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # LC286160 should not need to be moved by hand while hooking up. I recommend getting a different lube plate like # RP83002 to try to get a better fit around your king pin since there really isn't a good way to secure the plate to your pin box or king pin and still make it function correctly.
