This is after a couple months.
After being sprayed...
The binders now look like above after a week. Moved like its new again.
The trailer side box is not the best box for holding chains and binders. They get wet inside including road salt etc.
After a spray of T8, it’s good. -

They make a few different sizes of these bins. Just find the one that will fit the best inside your side toolbox, then put the binders in that. -
Loudtom: the first photo is the partial picture of the side box under the deck of the stepdeck.
It’s not very big. Just enough room for 8 binders and chains.
It used to be on a Liebherr wheel excavator.D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -

I use 3-in-1 oil until the little bottle is empty, then I refill it with transmission fluid. The nozzle on the bottle is great for dripping oil onto the ball bearings in the handle and both oils are 'drier' than other oils so they don't really gunk up. I've tried all sorts of other sprays, lubes, smears, etc. I'll stick with 3-in-1 and/or trans fluid.
FoolsErrand, D.Tibbitt and MOBee Thank this. -
Unscrew binder all the way, take your grease gun (if you have one) and put 2 pumps in the end of each side and put back together. Good for at least 6 months. I also keep oil squirt gun and squirt the ratcheting part every month or so.
