Thanks or the Blue Ox suggestions. I've been eyeballing those on etrailer.com. Couple of more questions: Is the clamp on or bolt on type better? In regards to the hitch, what TW rating should I go with based on the TW of the trailer, which is 530lbs? Etrailer has carries Blue Ox for $599, but I haven't checked on Amazon to see if they carry them cheaper.
I prefer the bolt around the frame style (clamp on). The clamp on style prevents you from having to drill into the tongue/frame. Also, when you sell your TT, you have the option of keeping your Blue Ox and the clamps can be removed without leaving exposed holes in the tongue.
As far as which size bars to go with, I would recommend calling Blue Ox at 1-800-228-9289 and have all of your TT specs and info available for them to determine what you need. I have dealt with them and they are very informative and helpful.
