I'm pretty sure I've done this right, but I haven't had a chance to hook up to the trailer to check and I have no prior experience anyway, Call this post asking for a sanity check.
Bought a used 2019 174BH Baja, which came with Husky Centerline TS 32215 load leveling hitch. When I observed seller's truck the trailer was a bit more nose-down than I expected. The trailer isn't parked on perfectly level ground so I:
- Measured from the ground to the frame at the axle and got 22".
- Added three inches for the height from bottom of the frame to the top of the ball-socket on the tongue.
- Disassembled the existing LL hitch and took the drawbar dropbar and reoriented from ┐ to ┘ in the truck receiver.
- Installed the remainder of the LL hitch onto the truck with the ball at just over 25", figuring the extra weight will bring down the truck closer to two inches.
Does this sound right? Instructions on the LL hitch call for a torque specification that I cannot meet with my current tools, so I'll probably have to go by somewhere and have torqued. Obviously I'll need to hook up to test and confirm that the torsion beams are able to apply proper force on their receiver hooks on the sides of the tongue before doing that.
Thanks,
