Which trailer hitch?
With COVID still ranging, I'm getting into campers. But before buying, I'll rent a few, just to get a feel. I'm looking for a versatile setup to hitch different campers with a JLU, all with 2" balls.
I invested in the OEM towing package, and the bottom of the receiver is about 19" above ground. I read (here) that "trailer coupler height is around 17 inches". Is this accurate?
If this is accurate, then I'll simply get a fixed height hitch (2" drop). But if coupler height on campers varies, then I may should invest in a adjustable height hitch? Or an extra long hitch? (see discussion by @digitalbliss and @Rhinebeck01)
Or maybe I should buy a weight distribution hitch?
Thanks for your advice (and don't be shy about mentioning specific products)
