Getting Rid of my Dual Cam system
I really like this system but it's such a darn pain. It's so complex no one, anywhere, has any idea how to adjust it or install it. I just had it transferred to a new trailer and new bars also were...

Hi Mike,
I will again caution you to not get the Reese round bar hitch. You will not be happy with it. It will not give you the proper WD on the truck. Odds are high you will run out of rear head tilt before the WD comes in correct and then your stuck. That head, just like the trunnion bar head has friction sway control arm on it that will hit you’re A frame in a 65 degree right turn. The last time this came up you stated you had to back in sharper then 65 degrees.

I don't quite understand your statement. Why wouldn't the round bar have enough tilt and why wouldn't I get the proper WD??? I don't understand. The cam was actually installed for the round bars instead of the trunnions with the 18" length between the cam bracket bolt and the center of the ball catch. I would think it would actually install much better and install correctly.

Have you yet measured the angle of your turn? Being able to do that 65 degree right hand turn with the WD bars on will require writing off a lot of hitches on the market today. If there is any way you can find a solution to that turn, what you have now can be made to work well.
Hope this helps

For the past 2 weeks, I've been really sick. Haven't been able to do much of anything at all. Going by your pictures, it shows the 74 degree angle with the propane tank cover almost touching the truck bumper. When my bar broke out of my head, my propane tank cover was no where near my bumper so maybe the angle wasn't as steep as I was thinking.
