Yes ,the facts are in a product, the "TRUCK". No hitch is going to fix an overweight problem, especially if it was mounted in the wrong position to start.
He would have got the same handling problems with that B&W if it was mounted rear of center of axle.
First, the truck was not overloaded. 1200 lbs pin weight doesn't overload my truck. I have had over 2000 lbs pin weight with my gooseneck trailer and NO HANDLING ISSUES.
Second, the hitch was not mounted in the wrong position. The AUH mounts to the ball of the B&W. The arrow on the AUH MUST face the rear. This places the pin way behind the axle. This is the design of the hitch. It works great for those with heavy trucks but not for my situation.
I am therefore warning other aluminum bodied F150 owners to avoid this hitch.
