Needing some hitching advice!
Last year when we bought the large,heavy Wildwood, I had an extra leaf spring installed on my Chevy Express van..now have the lighter (BY FAR!) Sunny 2363 and can't get them synced to tow--wondering if I am trying to get it toooo close to specs..Before connecting, my TT hitch height is 17 1/2 ",19 1/2" ball height on van (can't adjust any lower). Unhitched the rear van wheelwell measures 32 in.,Frt. 29"( due to that added spring). Hitched with either of 6 or 7 links hanging free, the R. van wheelwell is 30 1/2",frt. 29 1/2"--TT always stays 17 1/2" from ground in front, and 16 " from ground in rear. Hoping someone will tell me I am within specs so I can stop worrying and travel on! I can't hitch the bars up higher or will be hitting the frame as at 7 links I am very close. I can remove the added leaf spring,I guess, if I have to but wonder if it would open a can of worms after towing such a heavy trailer and maybe affecting the remaining leaf springs. The rig tows great the way it is..but I would hate to hurt my van or equipment although is a small amount..input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Janalee!!!
