Curt Sending The Wrong Message?
They Use a F150 SuperCrew and a Montana to demonstrate how to properly hitch a trailer. The instructions are good... Not so sure about the message they are sending though. That fiver probably ...

I don't raise mine, less weight on the pin, the easier to pull out from under if high hitched.
Next time you raise it 1/2" off the ground, see how far you can move the feet back and forth likely more than an inch.
Yep, it is less weight on the pin, but I get the hee-bee-gee-bees seeing my front gear flex very much. I know they have an inch or so of play, but if the tires slip during the pull test (gravel or slick concrete), then the front gear takes all the punishment if they are "pinned" to the ground. I even stopped using my Rotochoks and went back to a conventional chock because it holds the wheels better during the pull test (more surface contact).

What's a "PULL TEST"
Ron, I know that B&W of yours won't break, but are you SURE it can't be high hitched? :B ;)
