There have been several discussions on this hitch that have become somewhat 'controversial'. I am NOT trying to stir this controversy/bashing back up. Instead, I'd like to see a good, intelligent di...

MacMan,
The TT can induce forces on the TV regardless of the rotation of the hitch head.
The HA is most effective at reducing the magnitudes of the force and "steering moment" when the TT and TV are aligned straight ahead since the VPP is at its maximum forward projection.
When going around a highway curve or changing lanes, the orange portion will rotate relative to the front part of the hitch. The hitch does not prevent the TT from swinging. The hitch does continue to reduce the force and moments - just not as much as when travelling straight ahead.
