Can I Use Gear Oil On Dual Cam
Can I use an 80W90 gear oil to lubricate the trunnion pivot points & cams on Reese Dual Cam? Reese says grease on cams is okay if close to 1200lbs hitch weight. I'm about 1,150lbs. Thanks.

I used regular wheel bearing grease on the ball and trunnions. I used a small dab of white lithium on the cams. just enough to stop the noise of the bars passing over the cams. My tongue weight was 1200lbs/
BTW, when the time comes you can flip/flop the cams side to side so you can then use the unused bottom side as the new cam surface. for me that was about 10 years which was about 20k miles.
