I used TriFlow oil on mine and wiped off the excess, but based on a prior discussion just about anything will work, even vegetable oil. I wanted something that wouldn't attract dirt.
I installed a right hand flip table on my Genesis 2000 by using the extra left side table I had from the donor 1000 LX. I flipped the LX left bracket upside down (allowing the notch to be in the correct place), and added a couple spacers so when opening/closing the table the end of the rod would not contact the propane bracket. Used Tri-Flo and both side tables work great. Bit of a hack job though... in the picture you can see that when the right table hangs the spacer has kicked the bottom of the table a little to the right. Not super noticeable and if anyone says anything about it I'll send them home hungry!
I might try and "hide" the stainless hardware by shortening the bolt and painting what's left. I used some small diameter fuel line for the spacer and cut it to length.
