I am new to the fiver world and my dealer told me not to grease my hitch or hitch plate because it attracts dirt and that combination is bad. they told me to use a silicone spray. I am hearing mixed...

Interesting topic which had me wondering about my Husky 16K W articulated 5th wheel hitch.
I'm OK with the Teflon plate but wondered about the articulating moving parts. It would stand to reason they also should be lubricated. Could not find anything on line or on the manufactures website that speaks to this.
Sent an e-mail directly to the manufacturer Husky and waiting for a response as to it's recommendation.

I have 4 way pivot Husky
Once a year I pull the pivot pin (large pin that holds head to cross-member & allows for side to side movement). Clean up the pin and area on head then regrease it
While I have the head off I turn it upside down...clean and grease all pivot points.
