Clunking on take off/stopping
I'm new to FW rv's... Have many miles in commercial semi's... We have a Husky 26K articulating hitch... When we leave from a stop I get a clunking sound/feel... Same when we come to a stop... So...

The only hitch the dealer sells is the Husky 26K W... I'm not sure what rails they sell... But they installed them too...
Truck previously had a FW hitch... Only the old universal mounting brackets (under the bed) were used during installation...
I think I'm going to call the dealer and ask about the "north-south" movement... As far as I can tell there isn't much if any fore-aft movement of the hitch legs in the rails...
Reused the 'universal' mounting brackets.
Rails are not positioned so hitch legs/tabs fit tight in rail slots.
When you start off hitch moves within rails....clunk
When you break hitch moves within rails.....clunk
Have some one drive truck trailer.....
Sit in back seat and watch out window for hitch movement
OR sit in bed of truck and watch it
I couldn't have said it better. You'll know EXACTLY whats going on then.
