I'm towing 10,000 bumper pull Toy Hauler. I'm under my Gross weight in both the truck and Toy Hauler.. My TW is 1440 pounds including the hitch.
My trailer sits level when being towed. But everytime I'm passed by a big rig or a big box truck I get sucked over.
Is there anything I can do to deal with this or is it just then nature of the beast!
How much are you being "sucked over"? Some movement / wind buffeting is going to happen no matter what hitch and truck setup you have. If you are being moved around so much that you think it is a safety issue, then you need to examine your hitch, weight distribution (all 3 - hitch, truck load, and trailer load), tires and suspension (on truck and trailer).
My little 21ft trailer moves around when trucks go by, but I am ready for the movement (watching the trucks approaching me). Usually I don't do anything - the trailer moves a bit, but not enough to have to "correct" for anything. Just hold the steering wheel and keep on going.
Most likely it is just a case of "nature of the beast"!
See you on the road!
