I had a similar issue and LT E rated tires on the truck and shocks on the trailer seems to solved it.I

That is the head for an equalizer type hitch. The small ball is for the attachment of a friction type sway control. There should be two spring bars to go with it.

Even after modifying the tongue jack on my travel trailer with a removable crank handle, my tailgate only misses it by about an inch when dropped. Even if the Ram gate would open it would be against the gas bottles.

You'll love it! I have two reverse lights on my utility trailer and four LEDs under my travel trailer aimed off to the side and rear. It's the greatest when you come home late.

I'm sure it would move it OK, but if this is a one time deal, it may be easier and safer to have a RV dealer or tow company move it for you.

Towing on the highway should be Ok, just get use to staying in 4th gear a lot. Issues could come up if you install a tall set of tires or try to pull up a really steep boat ramp in high range.

Has anyone ever used an automatic dishwasher type rinse on their truck? I hand wash my cars, but use a pressure washer to prewet and rinse. The washer has a low pressure applicator for soap and I was wondering if I could use it for something like the "jet dry" my wife uses it the dishwasher. I have used Adam's detail spray before drying and it makes quite a difference.

So, I live in Central Washington and even with our long winters and mountain driving you seldom need 4X4. When I ordered my truck I could get a SLE with 4X4 that I would that I would need every year or two, or for the same price a 4X2 6.2 NHT rocket that I could enjoy every time I stick the key in the ignition! Seems like a no brainer! The only down side is if you order a 6.2 4X2 in snow country you have to sign your life away! Mike

Boy I don't know where you live, but around here it's the Power Strokes! When my 6.2 sucks in some Power Stroke fumes it's like the afterburner kicks in. I hit the recalculate on the AC and the turn signal at the same time! Mike

This is my 6.2's favorite time of year! I'm hitching up the trailer for a week of camping! Is your Power Stroke missing? Check under my tires! Mike

Towing in the Cascades, I have seen 230 a couple of times. My truck only has electric fans so unless the coolant temperature gets pretty high they never run. The transmission cooler pretty much relies ram air for cooling. No matter which way I go when I leave home it's up hill with temperatures in the high 90's, 100's quite common. I've never been to concerned about fluid temperatures, just give a little cool down idle time if it's been pulling hard.

We were at Pacific Beach state park Wa and the older gal next to us needed to dump the holding tanks so she just drove off. When she came back she just swung around and backed on to the leveling blocks in one pass! Her daughter said "yea, she's done this before!" Mike

I had the same thing going on and it turned out to be a faulty speed sensor. What I noticed was at about 5 MPH the speedometer would drop to 0 and if the brakes were applied it would activate the antilock. Mike

I'm not so sure there are any upgrades to the OEM that will give you the performance you are looking for. Have you ever heard "use the same gear to go down hill as you used to go up"? That's where I would start. Use your manual mode to lock the RPM's at 3500-4000, and let it roll. Your throttle float between on and off and will still have an RPM cushion if you need to down shift occasionally to scrub off some speed.

I wired into the trailer plug harness.
