Question:
Should I use a Lube Plate when using my Demco 21k Auto Slide Hitch with a Roto Flex Pin Box? And if so which Lube Plate do you recommend?

Although it is not necessary to use a lube plate with your Demco Hijacker # DM8550035 Autoslide 5th wheel hitch because you should be using the Demco Hijacker Autoslide Capture Plates for Trailair Rota-Flex Pin Boxes # DM6171, you can use the 10" Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Lube Plate # 16721 if you want to more easily allow the king pin to slide into the hitch.
