Stehl tow dolly binding deck

[Patrick 8200]

I've put about 8,000 miles on this dolly in the past year. I noticed a couple weeks ago the deck seemed to be harder to move side to side and noticed on the drive this past week the deck wasn't straightening out completely. I pulled the deck up yesterday and found that the right side wear pad had a lot of gunk on it that was causing it to bind up.
Sprayed down with penetrating oil and scraped it off. Sprayed both sides with white lithium, lubed the bolt and tightened back down. Smooth as butter now.

Kind of did the same without removing the bolt, I was in the Keys camping.

I got a can of white lube and kicked the turntable all the way, each way, and sprayed the guide pads.

I should take mine apart before our snowbird journey. I keep forgetting.
