I've used crisco w/o any issues

I used white lithium for thousands of miles when I had my tt's. Worked fine for me.

The Reese grease in a tube sounds convenient to keep in the TT tool box. I'll look for some.
If I don't keep the weight bars lubed they squeak and groan and are generally annoying.

What I have noticed is that as my TTs have gotten heavier over the years, is that grease becomes more necessary. A 14K ball isn't all that cheap, so I grease it. I use wheel bearing grease and a disposable rubber glove. Works well.

What do you think about using white lithium spray grease for the hitch ball and the spring bars? I've got the spray handy and don't want to open a whole tube of grease for this small job. Thanks.
It should be fine. An EP (extreme pressure) grease would be be best, but any grease is better than nothing.
