I don’t understand. You guys must be really using a lot tension on the bars to have to jack up a vehicle high. I only need a little height to swing my Equalizer bars over the brackets by hand.
I was thinking the same thing. I raise the tongue just high enough to pick the slop out of the receiver and push the Equalizer bars into their L brackets. Then lower it back down to run. With my previous Reese HP trunnion style, I set the coupler on the ball and reach to the first link that the bracket would reach and lift them up with the cheater bar.
Depends on how much tilt is on the hitch head when you begin.
