Thanks for the input and advice. Decided on the Blue Ox BXW2000.
Installed this past weekend. All went well; followed instructions on install and watched their install video.
I am at 9 links. Trailer is level and truck is close to level.
Questions.....
1. How can I determine if less links are needed...since my TW is at 1450# or slightly higher after I add some front storage weight?
2. I did have to jack up the truck/trailer pretty high (with tongue jack) to be able to crank on handle (rotating latches) and lock chains in place at 9 links. Is this normal?
NOTE: Very happy that the 7 hole, 2", 2000#/20000# shank (BXW4000) worked out perfectly and I can lower my truck's tailgate without hitting hitch ball!!! (Could not do this on my Outdoors RV with its tall coupler profile).
Thanks!
