Sorry Barney, you're incorrect on this one. As the bars provide lift the ball will move towards verticals.
Not enough to amount to a hill of beans. I posted what I did because some readers will take the earlier quoted statement that you made to mean that the hitch head will or should pivot or move when the bars are tensioned and that is simply not true.
What I said is a fact. I have seen very few trailers hitched up that have had the ball in a truly vertical position. The only way that could happen on most hitch setups is if the trailer was way nose high.
