Installation Video Did Not Show Grease Added To B&W Continuum, Is It Required?
Question:
Your video for istallation was a hude help, got set up in about an hour. Only question, does the hitch come pre-greased. The directions say to add grease to the zerk fitting, but your vidoe doesnt show that.

Expert Reply:
You will need to add Grease # L11390 on the B&W Continuum Weight Distribution System # BW78FR. We do not always show these additional steps as we have typically tested and demoed the system prior to our installation videos. This helps us and our installer fully understand what is expected and ensures everything fits correctly. I prefer to keep a Grease Gun # L30416 with the trailer to ensure the same type of grease is always used with the components and you are not mixing grease types which are not compatible.
