Will do. My last trailer had the trunion bars. I'd put a little grease on the 2 mounting points in the head.737Views0likes0CommentsRe: WDH choices

I am happy. Now to get ready for the first trip in April!! Great score! Did you get a round bar or a trunnion? Regardless, make sure you grease the contact points on the WD hitch. Thanks! Jeremiah They are the round bars...I didn't see any grease fittings in the head, I'll look again. Thanks!737Views0likes0Comments- 208Views0likes0Comments
Re: WDH choices
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I just picked up a husky round bar setup,with the friction sway control on Craigslist for 100 dollars! I'll try it out. If it is not doing the job, I'll step up. I thought the price was worth it. I had a very similar setup on my last trailer, which was a 20 foot hybrid.737Views0likes0CommentsRe: 2005 Palomino Puma 27FQ

I have spent countless hours going over the threads here regarding WDH setups. I just picked up a new to me camper. The camper is 30' and GVWR is 6500. Most, if not all, of our camping trips are less than 200 miles from our house. We are weekend warriors, and head out about once a month on our camping trips. With all that being said, I am trying to narrow down the best hitch for the money, and for my needs. I picked the camper up over the past weekend, and towed it on just the ball. The ride home was all highway, and was about 150 miles. I stayed under 60, and had little to no sawy at all. I am was very surprised. I am kind of thinking a simple round bar setup with friction sway is all I need. There is a side of me that is saying to buy the Andersen Setup. I like the setup and sleek design.

I also experienced a squishy feeling when towing with the trucks suggested PSI. Once I aired up to the sidewall max, towing was night and day. Trailer tires, aired to the max, truck front and rear aired to the max. I keep it like that during the camping season, and then drop it back down to the truck recommended after the camping season is over, or if I am going on a trip without the camper. As for the rough ride, it's barely noticeable.349Views0likes0Comments
