The 1500# WD Hitch wasn't quite enough. The good folks at Major Hitch in Boise upgraded me to the 2,000# bars & the 2,000# 2-1/2" shank for only $45.00. I then thought my factory receiver might be a weak link so I put a Curt V5 commercial receiver on it with a 2,700# tongue & 20,000# tow rating. Filled the fresh water tank and loaded the RzR. Ended up raising the ball one hole. Trailer measures 22" front & rear from the bottom of the frame to the road on a level surfaced hooked up & pickup is within a half inch front to rear as when unloaded. I'm happy now. We'll see how it does this weekend......
I hope you are going someplace benign on your first trip to make sure your trailer and hitch are dialed in properly. I wouldn't go on 55 North along the Payette unless my confidence level is 100%. That road, although beautiful, kind of creeps me out even in a car. Good luck and have fun.
