Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I'm tired of getting grease on me every time I fit the trailer on.
The grease gets pressed out too easily under load. See pic.
I suspect there is a better grease for the purpose.
I know I'm using wrong grease now.
I think a High Pressure grease may be the answer?
I'd appreciate opinions.

It probably wont matter which grease you use it will still be around the back of the coupling.

You can get a rubber dust cap that is used for trailer bearings. You might have to trim a bit off the bottom so it slides on all the way. You will need something like silastic to glue it on.

I hope this makes sense and it will stop you getting grease on yourself everytime you use it. I had the same problem and this worked for me.

Check out Clark rubber for the rubber feet you can put on chair legs and stuff to stop them scratching floors... that plus a cable tie

You might end up spending more on petrol than you would save driving around getting prices tho...
