Expert Reply:
You would not need a lube plate with a Demco HiJacker Autosliding 5th wheel trailer hitch because the hitch head will turn with the trailer pin box.
The locking plate # DM6095 has a piece on the bottom that wedges into the hitch head funnel. Then the force of making the turn will rotate the head and engage the auto-sliding feature.
