New WD Hitch Needed- Reese DC or SC?
We are very seriously considering upgrading to a new trailer, a Jayco 32BHDS. Listed dry tw is ~900lbs, so I am figuring after propane and battery, close to 1200lbs + what is loaded in the trailer, so...

Kevin,
Not sure what Ford suggests for wd hitch adjustment. I do know the newer (yours may fall in that) trucks it is suggested to return the front end back to 50% of the lost faw. I did recently read the Reese instructions again while trying to decide which hitch system, and Reese still states equal drop, or to follow manufactures recommendation if different.
And as for being in a hurry due to a trip, I understand! Our trailer we just sold, picked it up on a Mon, and by Wed night we were at the campground. My wife was out of town when I picked it up, and didn't get home Wed afternoon until her flight was delayed, and then she flew into a different airport which is an hour away (without traffic which is bad during rush hr) instead of 10-15 min away! This time we get to p/u our new Jayco Thu evening, then we head out Fri for a w/e trip! Maybe the next rig we buy we will have learned by then! Lol
