Should I apply any lubricant to the new plate?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Since you are replacing the Gear for Lippert Single and Double Electric Coach Step item # LC301696, you will want the Replacement Self-Lubricating Bushing for Lippert Electric Coach Step item # LC116531. This is a self-lubricating bronze bushing that does not require grease. If you want the entire replacement joint assembly hardware kit, you will want item # LC216567 which will work for 1 moving joint. If you don't want to do that you will have to keep adding lubricant in there. I recommended using a dry lubricant like the Roadmaster LubeMaster Dry Silicone Spray item # RM-747 to properly grease the gears. You will want to do this every few weeks.
