How To Access The Lubrication Points On A Reese M5 5th Wheel Hitch

Question:

Do you have a video of removing tilting head to access lube points on bearing knuckles? Have a 2022 F350 dually with Ford 32.5k hitch which is same as the Reese.

The hitch head for a Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package # RP68FR is held the center section with a pin & clip on both the left and right side. I've attached a video below where Conner will show you these pins as he assembles the hitch at the 11:00 minute mark of the video.

You'll simply need to tilt the head a bit to gain access to the clips, remove them, and then pull the pins to release the hitch head from the center section.
