Curious- bouncy trailer question
I have a 23 ft travel trailer, and a 14 ft aluminum stock horse trailer. I towed them both with my 2000 3/4 ton Suburban with no issues.
Last summer I got a new 2014 3/4 ton Suburban. The hitch receiver is 7 inches higher on the frame now. Why? I think its stupid design. So I have to buy all new hitches.
No problem with the travel trailer and the Equilizer hitch towing.
No problem with the horse trailer towing as long as it has a load (full or hay, or several horses.)
But empty towing, it bounces all over. So whats this mean? Not enough tongue weight? Do I need sway bars or stabilizer bars? It tends to make me somewhat seasick.
