And aside from the question of actually towing the trailer ….which you’re still avoiding, what part of that sales pitch blog did you infer the wdh vs no wdh from? Or did I miss part of the article?
And to Reisenders point, is the gold standard (official placard on the hitch) completely wrong? Is this a knockoff Asian mfg hitch off of Amazon or Fleabay or something where the mfg has poor interpretation skills when they attempted to produce the placard?
(Btw that seems plausible with the supposed or apparent errors in numbers, classification, Engrish grammar lol and lack of information. )
Back to the original subject, it now appears you’re attempting (or just in the speculation and consternation stage) to tow a trailer with a much higher hitch height than may be acceptable for the tow vehicle. You notice the pic in the blog or Reisenders trailer? Both have much lower hitch heights.
Reason #37 (even though the detractors will say otherwise) to leave the mommy missle in the garage when it comes time to do some actual towing…..
I applaud the OP for his spirit and as well his quest for knowledge rather than the “hold my beer” approach , but pending the placard resolution, it appears he’s likely in the you shouldn’t tow it if you believe the mfg ratings category….
