Need to ask the obvious question here... if the Blue Ox hitch was working well, why did you step up to the ProPride hitch? Most just don't go and spend $2500+ to replace the hitch because they wanted to. Sorry if that comes off as confrontational as it's not meant to be... I'm genuinely curious.
No offence taken. Like I said the Blue Ox did well but I still had the push-pull on the trailer from passing Buses and Big Rigs. It did not upset the truck but I could see the trailer in the mirror move left than right as each big rig passed, sometimes making an extra swing on the rebound. Now I am sure this is due to the design of our trailer. The kitchen with all its heavy stuff is all the way in the back. Countertops, cabinets, refrigerator, stove, microwave, water heater and furnace. That's got to add up.
Yup, that hitch was expensive. But I sold the Ox for a good price and used my tax refund for the balance, so not as painful.
