Equilizer going from Ram 1500 to 2500
My current vehicle is a Ram 1500 and I will be borrowing my friends Ram 2500 diesel for a long trip coming up and I don't want to adjust my hitch. My question is do you think it will require an adjustment?
I dont believe it will be too much of an issue if it off a little bit but I dont want to trade with the hopes of an easier drive and end up worse than I started. His hitch sits just under 19 3/4" and mine sits at 18.5" from the ground.
My current set up is with 5 washers.
I know this isnt the right answer but I really dont want to take apart the hitch to readjust. The 5" bolts are torqued to 320ftlbs as per the instructions and I would have to go to a shop just to adjust it and I could end up going back home then realizing it didnt work and have to go back and forth. Plus getting it back to spec again after we trade back. Lastly, I dont know what type of stress on the hitch it might cause to repeatedly be adjusting it over and again.
