I've used white lithium grease for similar applications in the past with
good success. It does attract and hold some dirt but it's slippery enough
where it still keeps things moving quite nicely. If not that, then I'd have
to agree with everyone else on the spray silicone lube. Bowman makes a very
nice spray silicone that works well on everything from jacks to shining
tires on the truck. :-)
