Well... looks like I mis-labelled this thread.
See, I thought I had a mis-match between the PSI in the Reese and the air bags creating impingement on the pin by the Husky cross bar. Independently, all mechanisms appear to be functioning correctly. Next "test" will be lower inflation pressure on the Reese... I went with 80 PSI as it seemed to be forum wisdom consensus as a general "range" for towing bliss. I will keep playing with the combo to find PSI Nirvana.
BTW...I did try pulling forward and backing up without success in freeing the release bar. Thank you for the input . For the first time in the years I have owned the fiver I noticed "bow wave" from the big rigs.... I suspect an over-shoot on the aforementioned PSI's. (That having been said... first trip on new tires on truck and trailer ., sure was a smooth ride) :W
