Considering a hitch extension....
I added a battery box / small tool box that is wider than my A-frame. If I jack the trailer hard while backing in, hitting the box with the corner of the bumper is possible.
I was thinking of adding a 7" extension between the truck and the WDH. Can't find any reliable tech info on why I can't or shouldn't do this, though I did see one "off the cuff" post about it reducing towing capacity by 50% or more!
Anyone have any knowledge / experience with doing this?
I have a 18" extension that I use to haul my little utility trailer, so that the hitch clears the spare tire. 18" is a lot more than what I need, but I suppose that I could hook-up and take it for a short drive to test the idea.....
