Can Trailer Landing Gear Legs without Zerk Fittings be Greased
Published 06/06/2019
Question:
How do you lubricate the screws in landing gear? There are no fittings. One video showed a tube you slide over the screw after removing the plate at the bottom. The tube has a zerk fitting on the bottom. What do you recommend and what tools do you sell to assist? Thanks!

I attached a picture that shows where the zerk fitting for greasing the Lippert landing gear part # LC179013 is, but if your landing gear does not have any fittings best bet would be to take off the top (if possible) and apply grease to the bevel gears here and/or spray lithium grease up through the bottom of the inner leg as much as possible.
