The 3rd one! The first 2 will be wrong due to murphy's law...Yep, the 3 I have here are all 2" ball size, and so it the trailer. Only question now, which one to try first
Lol!! I know right? Unless I fool them all by starting on the opposite end and hit it on the head on the first try
Sounds like a plan, and I'll try the 5" drop first then. Don't think 1/4" or even 1" would make a huge difference if it's not perfectly level, would it?
I think it was 19" to the bottom of the receiver and 21" to the top, if I remember right. This is my 4x4 dimensions. I measured because it was roughly 2 inches higher than my 4x2.Lol!! I know right? Unless I fool them all by starting on the opposite end and hit it on the head on the first try
On the showroom floor, while the trailer looked level (by eye), I measured 15 inches to the ball coupler. Not sure what this represents in terms of F-150 hitch height though
So, say 20" from the middle of the F-150 hitch, minus 5" drop, that would give me my 15" I measured before. Need to account for a bit of suspension squat though. Does it matter much if the tailer nose dives a little? Or is the other way around better?
Level the trailer empty and measure coupler to ground.Yep, the 3 I have here are all 2" ball size, and so it the trailer. Only question now, which one to try first
Very cool!!Finally got it done today. Hooked up the trailer (the hitch with the 3 1/2" drop was the best for this trailer), crossed the chains, installed and calibrated the backup sensor, and went for a little drive. All good
Thank you! I don't trailer anything remotely as large as you do, but nonetheless there was a certain degree of pride and accomplishment in what I did today
First truck, first trailer, first time out on the road with all of it!
