Reese Strait Line Questions/Help

The dealer also set it up with an empty trailer. You’ll need to adjust as the tongue weight changes once loaded up. It sounds like you’re going in the right direction with more tension as required. You can ease the tension for hook up by using the tongue jack. Once you’ve dropped the hitch on the ball and latched it, extend the tongue jack again lifting the back of the truck and tongue together. Then snap up the brackets. It will take minimal force this way. Once the brackets are snapped up retract the jack.
