SIZING WD AND TRAILER HITCH SYSTEMS
1. Refer to provided Consumer Information to weigh loaded trailer tongue to determine proper system size.
2. Choose a system with tongue rating at or above the actual trailer tongue weight
3. Tongue rating of trailer hitch must meet or exceed measured tongue weight of trailer. OEM hitches may not be
rigid enough for tongue weight and may need to be replaced (too much flex and won’t carry load).
4. Total trailer gross weight rating must never exceed tow vehicle rated gross tow rating.
INITIAL SET-UP
1. Line up
tow vehicle and trailer on level pavement, in straight-ahead position, uncoupled.
2. Level the trailer and measure and record the distance from the ground to the top of the coupler. (Fig.1).
WARNING: Raised balls usually have reduced load ratings. Ball rating MUST equal or exceed trailer GVWR.
3. Some installations may require a longer hitch bar ③ . Extended bumper guards, pickup truck "caps", or rear mounted spare tires can limit turn
angles unless a longer bar is used. Individual hitch bars ③ are available in various sizes.
4. Insert the hitch bar ③ into the hitch box and install a pull pin ⑯and gold spring clip ⑨ . Hitch bar ③ may be used in either the up or down
position (see Fig. 2).
NOTE: The ball height should be greater the than coupler height by approximately 3/4 to 1” (measured in step 2) to compensate for vehicle squat.
For vehicles with air springs, air shocks or an automatic leveling system, check vehicle owners manual. Unless otherwise specified, level the trailer
with the vehicle loaded as it will be when towing before setting ball height and attaching trailer.
Note: Numbers in circles can be found in the chart on page (1)
