3) The hookup was fine as long as you were always in exact alignment with disconnect. If your angle was off when you went to hookup again they were unable to rotate the ball easily to line things back up. There was just too much pressure from it being set down in the tapered shank and lining. They even put a small bar into the pin hole to try and rotate the ball. That worked, but it took some serious tugging.
I have not found this to be an issue. Last week I unhooked at an almost a 120 degrees. I used a piece of blocking to pry the hitch back. I have had other times where I parked at 150 degree angle and was able to hookup easily.
I am just relaying what I was told. They said it was not easy, but it was possible. It was something to take into account when hooking or unhooking. I really like the design and lightweight aspects. I like the lack of bounce. I dont like all the mystery surrounding using the coupler and latch in a way that it wasnt designed. I guess we just need to wait and see how things turn out with users of the hitch.
