Any problem with Back scrapping on road when backing up, or entering gaz station with

[Johnnya]

I currently own a sunseeker 3010 Class C and upgrading to a GTXL 350. From time to time, my sunseeker rear end (Hitch) will scrape the groud.

Anyone installed some sort of skid roller wheels on your hitch to prevent this?

Yours seems to be worse than our Georgetown. I tore off the trailer plug assembly, but the hitch has never scrapped. Not sure how those rollers work. I'm assuming when you bottom out they will lift up the entire rear end.

Some pictures would help.

I had one of these on my Gulfstream. It sat really low and would scrape on everything.



It worked really well. Itore the 7 pin trailer plug off of my Georgetown the first time I put it in my driveway. Took the mount off, ground everything flush, rewelded the mount on top of the receiver tube and haven't had a problem since.

So it's the actual hitch receiver that drags?
For me it's the V shaped iron underneath that's actually designed to drag, and boy does it drag!

Had the same issue as alpalmer. The Shell station just around the corner from me has a terrible slant due to the road being used as a gutter. Took my trailer connector bracket off the first time I turned in. I bought a new trailer connector with bracket and relocated it higher. I cut the remaining metal trailer connector bracket off the hitch and painted it. OI dfon't go there any more because I'm afraid it will rip off the stone guard if I pulled in.

I used the roller type on the hitch of an Itasca class c I used to own. They work very well, just let them touch then pull forward slowly. I had to do something similar on my previous V-Cross as I severely mangled the OEM rub guard on my drive

Great info, Thanks guys

This is what I did. I got the wheels at northern tools.

Nicely done...did you get the whole assembly at Northern or just the wheels and fabricated the rest?
