We just purchased a 2012 Mobile Suites with a new Mor-Ryde King Pin. Does anyone know what size lube plate it takes? Current owner said 10 or 12" but wasn't sure. I'm driving 600 miles to pick it up and want to be sure I have a fitting lube plate so I can bring it home. All help appreciated!

Get the 12"--that is what we use. Works very well. 10" not really large enough.
Hope it is a good unit--safe travels.

Rena, welcome to the forum from the Memphis area. Either the 10" or the 12" will work, but like Wingnut said the 12" is a little better. If you can only find the 10" right now go ahead and use it and then get a 12" and slide the 10" inside your basement for a spare.

Welcome to the forum.
Either would be better than none.
The choice might be dependent on your hitch mfr.. Some hitches have a larger plate than others. Ours recommended a 12". There might also be thickness spec's. to avoid high pin clearance / latching issues. That's probably rare though.
Have a pleasant trip, Congrats.
