I called Andersen and asked them this same question. They said since their hitch hooked onto the gooseneck ball, that is where the weight is placed not 4in behind the ball as it appears. The "foot" of the Andersen hitch is just for added support, but does not support the weight of the FW, the GN ball does. Hope this answers your question.
