Do I lube the stud/stand off that the magnet slides over? My magnets seam a little sticky when sliding out and in and I was wondering if a little anti seize or disk brake lube would be a good idea.

 

Did you go ahead with the lube?
Curious.

 

All rite guys , lets give this thread a bump , I'm curious too , getting ready to repack my bearing on my 5th wheel.
A little lube on that pivot point and maybe a touch on the self adjusters ,
what do you seasoned vets say. Is it needed or recommended
All comments appreciated ,

Thanks
Rich

 

The tech manuals make no mention of it. I don't do it. Is it necessary? doubtful. Is it recommended? Not that I can find anywhere. Is anyone actually having trouble with this?

My two cents,

Steve

 

Hi thanks Steve,
No problems but when I get in there I would like to do it once , do it right , and not second guess myself thinking about it . Plus coming from a Tech who has seen more brake assembly's than I ever will I appreciate your time in answering , It carries a lot of weight to me.

Thanks Again,
Rich

Reps to ya...

 

Steve is the guy but I might consider a little anti seize if it was binding pretty badly. After all, he didn't say no.

If it works so well on a turbo unison ring sticking with that heat, a small strategic dab I think, wouldn't pose any problem.

 

I doubt it would hurt anything.

True but one must be careful I would think, a bit to much and of the wrong viscosity , with heated drums could wind up on the shoes.
