Trail Air Roto Flex noise?
Ok, so the story is this... I just traded in for a different truck. When towing with new truck I noticed that when braking or accelerating the pin box is making an irritating noise - like a taping noise. I confirmed it was the pin by having my wife watch the hitch while I moved truck back and forth. She said it is flexing and the rubber is tapping the base. I have not checked the torque on those bolts and can't seem to located recommendation on what they should be torqued at.
New truck is a dually and sits about an inch and half lower than old truck. I also added 1" taller tires to FW so the rig rides almost completely now, where before it rode pretty nose-high, but was dead silent.
Do you think it's the bolt or is my rubber pad all of a sudden, completely shot?
Thanks for the help.
