I like to put Chevron wheel bearing grease on the roll pin and the locking lug wear plate; it's very 'sticky' and doesn't run off.

I use Ballistol in most of these applications and the other products Richard employs except that on the roll joint and other friction surfaces I use Rig. Too bad we don’t have sperm whale oin any longer.
