Standard Travel Trailer tongue height?
Hi all. We just purchased a 2013 Wilderness 2750RL and just had a Springdale 202QB. I am wondering if trailer manufacturers have a standard drawbar height, or is it different from trailer to trail...

Based on a little quick googling and my immense knowledge of TTs, I am going to guess 22" above the ground.
Reason I say that is it looks like the axles are underslung (axles under springs) and tires are 15" and by way of comparison to our own TT. Could be an inch off that either way tho... Would be okay to tow home with nose down a bit, but not up very much at all. Take some tools and be prepared to adjust/flip the shank and adjust the bar angle as needed to get adequate weight back onto the steer axle. May depend on what your shank is like and height of the receiver. Set the initial ball height at 1" height above the TT coupler (with TT level) which you can do before you leave to get the trailer.
