New Andersen WD hitch
A fellow camper bud showed me this. It's new and different. Anyone using one? Andersen WD hitches A U-tube video with the factory guy explaining it. You have to get past MR Truck doing his...

what is required to do to the Anderson hitch with each hookup? Just raising the front of the trailer up enough and slipping the bracket onto the bottom of the ball, or do you have to mess with the bushing tension adjustments? It looks in the vids like just raising the tongue to release tension, but I've read some about the need to adjust the tension at hook-up to be easy, but bothersome. What's the reality?
With the amount of compression you may need with your larger trailer, I would guess you will need to loosen the nuts. On mine I can raise the tongue up enough with the jack to drop the plate, but honestly its just as easy to loosen the nuts. Time wise its not as fast as I expected, but its no longer than a plain WD setup. I used to have a basic EZ Lift prior to the Andersen.
I think one owner actually just disconnects the chains using the clevis and leaves the plate on. Not sure why he does that but that would also be easy.
