New EQ4 hitch install

**BobnColo** · 03-16-2021, 05:36 AM

I don't remember, it's either 10 or 12K. First time setting it front end was almost back to original (1/4")Haven't had it out yet but will be going to Camp Verde Az from Cortez Co on the 26th so we will see.
The dealer tech set up the ball height from measurements he took when I picked it up but they didn't have the hitch in so I had to finish the install at home.

I would think that trailer would need the 1400 lb bars

Tongue weight must be above 1200lbs. Maybe not but the 10000/1000 bars definitely wouldn’t be enough

Haven't had mine on the scale yet but here are some pics sitting in front with no wd hitch connected just ball height.

OK just went and weighed
just truck
3200 front, 2280 rear, 5480 gross

with trailer
3180 fr, 3100 rear, 7140 trailer axels, 13420 gross

Pulls really well other than the snapping popping of the new EQ4 hitch but that should tone down some as the powder coat wears off I would think.
First time setting up one of these hitches so I might want to reset after pulling it awhile, but right now feels good.

That is good

Without the hitch attached would be helpful to know the TW

Looks like 820 tongue weight
empty rear axle 2280
loaded rear axle 3100
sounds about right to me

Do the “with trailer” weights have the WDH engaged or not?
