I have similar conditions - short, short arms, dually hips, tool box, can not see the hitch at all from the drivers seat...
1. Look in bed and make sure the handle is out....
2. Make sure tailgate is down
3. Press left/right buttons on level-up system - hitch returns to height
4. Get in truck - using mirrors align truck/trailer and backup until pin disappears (should be aligned with the hitch)
5. Get out and double check height and alignment
6. Backup until jaws close and handle locks.
7. Using step stool, put handle lock and pin in place
8. Connect power and emergency brake
9. Complete pull test
10. Press retract-all on level up
Thanks for all the usefull suggestions I am going to try a few.
I left Camping world in PA @ midnight made it to destination @ 6 AM zero traffic on the GWB had the road to myself. Back and knee pain real bad wanted to take a pill but that would mean I would have to stop driving and lay down and it would also mean I would be stuck in traffic traffickers I started back on my way so I just gutted it out and ignored the pain until it was safe to take a pill. All is well waiting for new set of Rotochoks to be delivered, I didn't realize the ones I used on the other RV would not fit this one
