I am new to the camping scene but have pulled goose neck trailers most of my life. I recently bought a 2014 Spartan 1032 (love it), but I have an issue...if I turn too sharply, maybe 75-80 degrees the pin box in my camper will contact the sides of my truck bed. I would raise the hitch height, but I'm afraid it would unload the tounge weight and lead to issues while driving...anybody have any insight?? Any help would be very much appreciated!
Curious, are you finding you actually need the full 90 degrees?
We only get 70-80 degrees with our SB truck and it's been more than enough clearance to get the job done. With our rig the pin box would contact the bed rail at the same time the cap would hit the cab. So, when turning and such all we need to do is watch the pin-box/bed-rail clearance (either directly or via the rear view mirror) and we know all is good.
