We borrowed a friend's big combo last year and the hitch was an Equal-I-zer. He told us to follow the instructions in the owner's manual, which reads in part:Equal-I-zer wrote:
Step 9
regular Maintenance:
The friction surfaces of the head and sockets should be kept clean and
well lubricated with Equal-i-zer® high performance lubricant. They should be lubricated before each trip.

Here is an off subject question as long as we are discussing WD hitches. What do you do to cover the end of the spring bar when you remove the bar to keep the grease from getting everywhere? I have been using a plastic baggie but I think there might be a better way.

I got the Blue Ox so there is no grease on the bars.

I completely understand the difference between a weight distribution system and a sway bar. The only whining noise that I could think of would come from the sway bar. I keep the spring bars well lubricated where they plug into the hitch. No noise from these bars.

I have a Husky Friction sway control (P/N 34715/37498)which seems to work well when adjusted properly but does pop and groan when turning at slow speed. I would like to be able to get rid of this noise by lubricating and still get the anti sway action. However, the instructions say: Important: Do not lubricate. Comments?

My Equal-I-zer makes a heck of a racket groaning and popping at slow speeds. Perfectly normal.
Mine used to do that until I greased it. After that ... quiet. The groaning and creaking comes back so best to carry grease around.
