Re: How much grease should I put on the ball hitch

[ QUOTE ]
When was the last time someone here "wore out" a hitch ball or reciever ?
Who here actually knows someone that did ?

[/ QUOTE ]

I wore the chrome off a ball, pulling without lubing it. I tried wax paper on the ball for a while, but wasn't convinced it actually worked, so I lube mine with moly grease now. I wipe the ball clean when the hitch isn't sitting on it, so attracting dust doesn't seem to be a problem.
