Expert Reply:
In the install instructions for the head of the Reese M5 27k fifth wheel hitch recommend a grease needle adapter with a grease gun like part # L30132 to apply grease to the grease fitting on top of the hitch. We don't have the needle adapters but a local hardware store or even elsewhere online would pretty easily have them as they are very common.
