Hitch Height on OVR 2xx Series TTs with Off-Road x4 Susp Pkg
Made some quick measurements at the dealer, unfortunately none of their trailers were very level so I had to transpose some of the measurements. I measured a hitch height of approx. 28-29 inches, which would require a Cat V (2.5") receiver hitch with about 5-6 inches of rise on my '16 Ram 3500 SRW which has a receiver approx. 24" high (measured from the top of the opening). That's quite a bit of rise! I assumed 1 - 1 1/2" of sag with 1,200 lbs. of tongue weight. Get approx. 3" sag with 3,000 lbs. of pin weight.
For those folks towing the larger OVR TT's with the Off-Road x4 Suspension (with 235/80/16 tires), does that sound about right?
Thanks!
