I use one also. I have the 2.5" Titan receiver but my WD is a 2". It seems to work but there is a lot of slop and play with the WD hitch when not connected to the camper. I haven't noticed any issues or loud noises when towing.
same here. you have double the slop as the adapter has to slide into the receiver, and the hitch in to the adapter.
i don't care for this and have found 2.5 inch hitches to fit all my towing needs.
don't have to, or like to, use the adapter.
other than that it's a fact of life on the higher GVW units
