    I was just getting on here to see if that goop that @Banker recommended had worked for you or not. Hopefully that will fix it.

    I sprayed the vertical rails down with Fluid Film. #18 is coming down with weight now, but it’s jumping. I’ll dose it down with more to see if I can eliminate the jumping, but yes @Banker suggestion was worthwhile for sure.

    My front top deck on my trailer is bad about making the noise when lowering. If I lube it very often it does it less. If you like the fluid film the paint can version that you put on with a brush will lube better and last longer, plus it is more cost effective to use. However you will look like a flat bedder if you get up against anything with it on it because you will have grease all over you. I speak from experience on this.
     
    Kozakvod and BigBob410 Thank this.

    Oh it’s most definitely some very slippery messy gets on everything it touches!
