I called Pullrite regarding the "slip plate" spray lube and I was told NOT to use those. The "slip plate" lube is okay for older hitches prior to '09. The new hitches, which is what I have, have plastic wear plates and on my manual it clearly states to use only WD40 or 3 and 1 oil. The Pullrite adviser told me the "spray lube" graphite lube will breakdown and destroy the plastic wear plate through the friction it will create. This is reiterated on my hitch manual. It states to use only WD40 and/or 3 and 1 oil for maintenance. It says not to use grease on the way tubes or inside the cam.
