Tongue height for 2007 17" Roo

Just bought a 2007 17 foot hybrid and am looking for the tongue height at level. I get the trailer next week and want to set up my hitch.

Also what is the ball size for this model?

If it is anything like the 2009.... it is a 2 inch ball

If I remember correctly, but don't quote me, it is 19 inches to the bottom of the coupler at level.... 21 1/2 inches to the top of the coupler at level.

a WDH is not a receiver. a receiver is what's bolted to the back of the tow vehicle and "receives" the WDH or drawbar.

so, did you have a receiver installed or did you buy a WDH?

If you did not get a WDH (weight distribution hitch) I highly recommend the E2 from Fastway. I was lucky and my tongue set up from the factory allowed me to place the frame brackets just behind the propane tank mounts. I only had to move the trailer breakaway switch.

I did not need the E2 for weight distribution, but for sway control. Decided that for another 100 bucks why buy sway control when I can have the complete package.
