Is this normal?
I recently purchased my first 5er (32ft 12Klb GVWR) and am using B&W Turnoverball with the Andersen Ultimate 5er hitch. So far I have been very satisfied with this setup. Its very smooth going down ...

Yes its a toyhauler. Loaded or unloaded doesn't seem to make a difference. On our maiden voyage I had two large ATVs in the back and about 100gal of water (over axles). THis last trip the trailer had no toys or water but still did this jerking when shifting under heavy acceleration.
On our next trip out I think I am going to setup my sons GoPro camera in the bed of the truck to see if there is any movement going on at the hitch/kingpin.
Good idea. Make sure you can see the =bed= at the base of the hitch. The newer GMs have/had bed-flex issues bad enough that B&W has a kit for the Companion to combat this and prevent the bed ribs from actually denting and flattening out. Might have to do something similar for your Anderson. GM went =too= far in trying to save a few ounces by making the bed just too damn thin.
