I agree with 8563 below. A video on articulating hitches pros, cons, and brand features would be worth viewing.

I have the heavyweight weigh distribution system from them and I bought a regular hitch from them and just put it on the shank from my wd system and it works wonderful. And the 2 5/16 adapter is awesome. Easy way to move the camper around without getting the big boy out. My in laws used it to haul a new race trailer home from Tulsa and they never felt unsafe using it the 1000 mile drive home down 44.

Liked the video, still learning and researching to be safe when we decide the truck and trailer combo we want for camping. Thanks for the information and the links to the products

I just ordered an Aero hitch last week. Looking forward to using it. Great video.

I love Weigh safe I own the middleweight weight distribution! Great product and awesome construction.

That ball adapter is a cool idea. Makes me wonder if you could take a standard 1 7/8” then add a 2” adapter, then the larger on top of that. Pretty cool idea.

I’ve had my 2.5 shank, 6 inch drop 180 for many years. And love it.

That 2 5/16 adapter really looks SUPER SKETCHY!!! But, I'm certain that it has been DOT approved

I’ve used it several times to help move my camper around real quick and it does a wonderful job. My in laws used my truck to go to Tulsa to pick up a new racing trailer and they ended up having to use it my 2” weigh safe with the extension to 2 5/16 and they said they never at one point felt unsafe pulling with it back up 44 1000 miles back home.

Do you have any videos on articulating hitches?

I have several from when I was in Utah filming Overland RVs

My receiver that i have is solid through and through and not hollow in the middle

Hey JD! What size drop rise do you usually run on the f-450? I have a stock 21 f-250 and I not sure if I should get a 4” drop or a 6” drop. Have any insight on what to choose ?

I have 6" drops but I'm usually around then 4" drop mark

I'm confused. If I want bigger balls, should I cover them in steel or aluminum? Asking for a friend.

I'm not saying it's a bad product, but why only include a lock for the ball portion and not the hitch pin as well? So they can't steal the ball, but they can just pop the pin out and steal the entire thing. Now I'd have to buy a separate lock for the hitch pin and add another key to keep track of.

My weighsafe lost its oil which makes the gauge inoperable within 3 months after 2 tows , Weighsafe did not stand behind it and neither did e-trailer.

Until they fail like mine did
