  • Lube Plate for Demco Hijacker 5th Wheel Hitch in 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty
    You are absolutely correct that the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch # DM8550024 in your 2019 Ford F-250 will need a lube plate that is a max of 3/16". For that I recommend the Curt Lube Plate # 16721 which is 3/16" thick.

  • Material of 10 Inch Lube Plates for Fifth Wheel Hitches
    Each of our 10 Inch lube plates for fifth wheel hitches are made from nylon, which is going to just as good a job as the graphite lube plates so you don't have to use any grease. The 10 inch lube plates we offer are: - Curt 10" Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Lube Plate # 16721 - Lube Plate for Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10" Diameter # RP83002 I have added links to video reviews of each of these lube plates for you to check out.

  • Correct Wedge For Curt A20 5TH Wheel Hitch With Lippert Turning Point Pin Box
    You will need to use the Wedge # C16992 on the Lippert Turning Point pin box. This will fit into the slot on your Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16140 allowing the pin box to pivot on the box itself and not on the 5th wheel hitch. You will still be able to use a Lube Plate # 16721 on the pin box to reduce damage to both the pin box and hitch head. It will also allow the pin box to slide on the hitch easier when connecting and disconnecting.

  • Lube Plate Recommended for B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch
    For their Companion series of 5th wheel hitches, B&W recommends using a 10 inch lube plate. I'd recommend the # 16721 from Curt. The lube plate would protect the skid on your hitch from getting scratched up, and would eliminate the need to use grease on the skid plate so you won't have a huge mess with grease everywhere.

  • Recommended Lube Plate for B&W Patriot 18K 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch
    For your B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255, B&W recommends using a 10 inch lube plate like the Reese # RP83002 or the Curt # 16721. This is your best option to prevent scratches on the hitch's skid plate and ease hookup with the trailer. There is not a bolt-on plate like the Reese # 83003 available that will work on the B&W Patriot. In addition to using the lube plate, B&W also recommends lubricating the polyurethane bushings on top of the pivot arms with high grade lithium...

  • Curt A16 5th Wheel Hitch Coupling Issue Troubleshooting
    It sounds to me like the Curt A16 hitch # C16120 may need to be lubricated. You might also have a spring or some other internal component that is about to fail. Lubricate before each individual use and every 1,000 miles thereafter. Black graphite grease is recommended for the jaw, pins and the lower bearing assembly jaw. High-pressure wheel bearing grease is preferred for the skid plate. NOTE: In severe cold temperatures a lighter grease, such as white lithium, may be substituted for the...

  • Replacement 5TH Wheel Hitch For a Reese Titan Discontinued 5TH Wheel Hitch
    The Reese Titan 5th wheel hitch was discontinued by Reese and they currently no longer have the handle bushing 58492 available. In the event you are not able to find this bushing in a dealers left over inventory or want to go ahead and upgrade to a new 5th wheel before more parts break, I recommend the Curt PowerRide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C22ER.

    You are correct that Curt does manufacture the Mopar factory 5th wheel hitches, so you can use either the # C16722 (12" diameter) or the # 16721 (10" factory lube plate) as a replacement. These are both 3/16" thick so they'll be suitable for almost any 5th wheel hitch, including your Mopar hitch.
