Moderator Note: Don't miss Country Campers outstanding posts (#23 and #24 in this thread) where he (Brian) shows each part of the jack as he reassembles it. Added the Reference Library tag to this thread. -Howard
After reading the post by Madonnell it reminded me that I have never lubricated the screw part of my front landing jacks on my 4 year old trailer. I was wondering how often others lubricate, and how it it is done?
The last time I did this procedure on a previous trailer I used a pool noodle that I split down the length of it and applied grease to the inside. I then ran the ID of the noodle over the screw and moved up and down a few times. This appeared to get enough grease on the threads after raising and lowering the jacks several times.
