Lots of experience with ball hitches but not with either of the other two. I have had articulation issues but more significant is difficulty getting the ball hitch's locking mechanism to engage without hitting it with a hammer to lock it. I just purchased a Lock N Roll to replace my ball hitch and will be cutting it off and welding/bolting on the Lock N Roll this evening. Will get to test it out a bunch in October.

Cut off the ball hitch and welded on the Lock N Roll last night. I am impressed with the strength and usability of the Lock N Roll hitch. Tested it out in the ditch in my front yard and believe this thing will be ideal for off road use. I used the Lock N Roll 30 inch long trailer side part and cut it to length so that I have just enough clearance for the bumper to clear the side of the trailer and to keep the overall length as short as possible.
