Well, all hooked up and was able to test all systems. Connected Prodigy 3 and mounted it under dash. Anderson hitch and converter box both kept in forward position. Ball on lowest setting.
Results:
1. Trailer and truck close to level. Trailer slightly higher in front that rear.
2. Full sharp turns no hitting at all (near bumper or at cab).
3. Tows nice and smooth with no clunking sounds.
4. Removed hitch all by myself with ease!
Thumps up to Anderson so far! We'll see how she does over the long haul.
NOTE: I did find that the RV 7 way electrical plug in my truck bed (previous owner installed for an overhead camper) did not have the brake wires hooked up. I connected my trailer plug to it only to find that the 5er lights worked but not the brakes. So I had to use the RV 7 way plug under my TV bumper plug to tow 5er during my test run.
