Round Bar Question
New to the site, been a follower of sorts tho.
I'm in the market for a 17-22" TT and recently found a great deal on a Husky WD kit, complete, so I snapped it up for the fact I'd be ready when I found the trailer I'm looking for.
The bars are rated for 800-1200lbs tongue weight. Now I'm wondering if when I find said trailer and the tongue weight is much lighter than I'm geared for, will I have a problem with bars that are rated too high?
Now I also have a chance to snap up a pair of Reese Pro Series round bars for next to nothing that are 550lb rated. I haven't had a chance yet to measure the round section which slides into the hitch head, does anyone know this measurement of these bars? They're part of kit#49901.
If the Reese round bar diameter is 1 3/8" as mine are, would it be a problem to use them in the Husky? The Reese bars have the same retaining slot from what I remember.
