Lube Plate for a 2018 Keystone Cougar and Demco HiJacker 5th Wheel Hitch  

Question:

Are you able to determine if I need a 10inch or 12inch lube plate for a 2018 Keystone Cougar 368MBI trailer. I ordered the trailer and would like to be able to have everything at the time of pickup. I have a Demco DM8550034 if that matters. Thanks.

Expert Reply:

Because the head on your Demco HiJacker # DM8550034 rotates with the pin box a lube plate isn't critical like it is on a standard 5th wheel trailer hitch. So if you wanted you could just use a little grease, # L11390. If you would rather use a lube plate then the hitch instructions state a maximum thickness of 3/16 of an inch (but don't specify a diameter). I recommend going with the Husky plate # HT34914 since it is 3/16 inches thick and the 10 inch diameter is more likely to fit without issue than the 12 inch.
