Common sense would dictate that they need to be kept greased, but.............have owned 4 gooseneck trailers (first one bought in 1970), 18 ft, 20 ft and 32 ft cattle trailers and a 27 ft flatbed. Only had.....I think........9 pickups (between my dad and me) in that time. Never a drop of lubricant on any of them unless we happened to spill some oil in the bed of the truck and it was always cleaned up.

My current (and maybe last, given my age) truck is a '93 Dodge dually w/Cummins, bought new and with better than 300,000 miles; the ball has been it since the first week and it's spent its whole life outdoors. I don't think you could measure the 'wear' with a pair of calipers.
