Thanks. I assume it would not cause a problem as it has been this way for a while. Although I am nervous with the bolt bent and the threads pulled. It would seem the movement changes the ball angle. With the adjustment made in very small steps with the adjusters it seems the ball would move 2 or 3 notches worth. I know I put the hitch together during a trip three years ago and have pulled a lot since then.
I am going to get the kit to mount from Reese and install the shim. Of course I thought about just making a shim out of steel and putting it in there. This might be a job today since it is going to be hot again!
