Whata a nice video! Thank you so much for it!

Quite enjoyed your video. Lovely family and doggos :) I'm a noob who just bought a trailer. Next summer will be my first so I'm watching a lot of video on just about everything. Love how down to earth you guys are. Wondered how your hitch performed after you made the corrections. Have fun out there, cheers!

First thing! Thank you for this video. Second, this video has given me confidence to purchase a RV and what to expect when hauling it.

I'm picking up a 31ft tomorrow and I already grabbed the tongue distribution stabilizer kit. I also recently just replaced the ebrire suspension and steering components with good parts. I will probably have my transmission overhauled with the heavy duty hauler kit as an affordable upgrade before switching to a diesel. This is by far the best video I found about this because it definitely seems like a pretty broad spectrum topic and a lot of opinions. Thanks for the information though, I wish more would put this effort of experience and knowledge in their videos.

Really impressive!!

Great, informative video for setting up the WDH!

Sorry if I missed it what year is your camper?

Love the channel man, thanks for all the tips!

Your head is on upside down.

Loved your video..I did the same thing. Made the whole adjustments 😊 so much better. Great video

I bought that exact hitch when I bought my F150, based primarily on price. I would not buy another WDH that uses chains. It's very important to torque the bolts to 250 foot pounds. The little crescent wrenches will not do that. You need a larger impact gun, or a 2 foot breaker bar to get it that tight. When weighing your truck ideally you should have the gear and passengers in the truck that you will normally carry. That way you have more accurate weights on the axles. When you go to the CAT scale, weigh it with with the passengers in it, or other gear to approximate the weight. Then park the trailer in a parking spot, not blocking the scale or fuel lanes. Unhook and drop the trailer. Remove the bars but not the hitch. Go back to the scale and select reweigh. It will only cost $4 for the reweigh. Then you can figure how much weight the trailer is adding to your vehicle, and to which axle. When backing with that style of WDH, disconnect the anti-sway bar. Otherwise you might damage the hitch, truck, or trailer.

Great Job!! Kids are great and the info is on point.

Great video! I have the same hitch under a different name. I spent 4 hours of my Saturday trying to decipher the horrific installation directions. Now I know what I need to do to get correct results. .You made it look so easy as my install should have been. Thanks, again, you da man!

People used to tow their travel trailers ,even their 30+ ft airstreams with the family station wagon or sedan we didn’t need a expensive pickup truck or suburban now people say they need a big dually one ton 😂

Hi, thank you for sharing your video I really like it. Unfortunately, I have the same problem and I'm about to replace the subflooring on my slide. Can you tell me what thickness you used? I have to replace the whole floor I was thinking of doing what you were just doing a repair but. I'm wondering if you suggest just repairing the ends. Or replacing the whole floor

Good job explaining, thanks.

Great informative video. Clear, precise, and your own real world data. Thank you for showing the incorrect way and then fixing it the correct way. I will refer back to this video when I need to set up!!!

Write your hanging link number on the bracket or trailer frame. Silver paint pen.

Thanks for the video. I have the same Husky round bar WDH. The instructions have a "Preliminary Head Adjustment Chart" that shows the correct distance from ground to end of spring bar (as "Y" in inches). The chart has three coupler styles - A, B, and C. Which style did you assume in your setup? Your coupler is the same as mine. thanks

It's better to add suspension support system(like timbren) or upgrading to heavy-duty suspension to level out your truck and trailer than adding WDH. WDH may level out the sack and from bouncing but puts a lot of stress to your trailer frame and in time your(in general) frame will bend and or fold. This comment is for the general viewers.

I have an 2005 f 350 and I am a Rv hauler and I always drive 55 to 60 miles per hour , also I have a 2018 Silverado 1500 but o think Those kinds of trucks are not for towing those kinds of trailers

well behaved children great information thank you

Is they a link or something I can pull the instructions. Or the model number of it mine is used and I can’t find the exact instructions

hey i have the same camper and truck as you!

All great points all good advice,after towing all over the country for work the major point I can absolutely verify is to keep the weight at the front of your trailer towards the tounge.

Thank you for your work in making this video. This was a big help for me. Your a good man to help other's. Please stay safe and happy

Just because it can be done does not mean it should be done. Many RV dealers & Truck dealers will tell you sure your half ton or suv can tow that. 1st rmbr that the weight of your trailer will be more moving, a 12' 13' high trailer creates a lot of wind drag. 2nd u need the proper brake size to stop your rig, i didnt hear anything about brakes other then trailer brakes to reduce sway which was well put. Also i agree weight distribution hitch and proper loading are far more important than air bags. I towed with an F150 6-7 years but now have an F350 dually diesel. The benefit of a diesel is the engine brake on hills. Also gear down your transmission can help u save your brakes.

Nice job. Need to mention the turn ion washers. Important

If you shorten the chains one more link OR add more washers that will load the front axle more and take some weight off the rear.

You might be able tow with a 1/2 ton, but do you want to? I made the mistake of buying a 1/2 ton, in the process of getting rid of it!

@9:30 I’ve been watching a lot of these videos and it surprises me how many people don’t protect the top of the wood they just spent all that time installing. 👍🏻👍🏻

I have a Silverado half ton pickup towing a keystone premier 29foot camper. Best mods so far rear coilovers Air bags "E" rated tires

We run the EAZ Lift Elite 1000 which is similar to this hitch. Recommend running a sway control bar on both sides, just makes that little bit extra difference.

Big factor when towing is your kids behaving in the backseat, you definitely have that on point my friend! Safe travels!

Well Done. Hopefully you don't have any other leaking issues going forward. Safe and happy travels!

Great video!

Well done. Count me liked and subscribed!

Great work! It all looks awesome!

Nice video with lots of good information. I have the same year model and trim as your truck, and I'm getting a similar size rv next weekend. I was wondering what setting do you use on your trailer brakes? I have never used the trailer brake controller in my truck, and im trying to get an idea of where I need to set it at.

Thanks for the info, really appreciated. I have the same Husky setup, where did you get the 1 - 1 1/2 inch settled vehicle info from? The instructions I downloaded say 1/2 inch settled different front to back fender, don't think I can get that with my Silverado 2500HD pickup. I did get 6/8 inch on my first attempt and it drives some much nicer! Do you think my setup is good or should I add more tension to the bars?

2 years later and still a great video! Also liked that you added the sway control arm. Just ordered one - thank you!

Well done in all respects, I would suggest that you paint the tongue of your trailer a different colour for ease of spotting, I sprayed mine safety yellow, it's easy to see in the camera and when you walk past the drawbar.

One thing you wanna keep an Eye on. Is you're transmission temperature on these trucks, they are known for going over 200 Fahrenheit. (While, pulling trailers.) Just a friendly note...😊😊😊

Well done. Thanks as our trailer has been sitting permanently for past 14 years and recovered my weight distribution system and needed a good refresher before moving. Your video helped immensely. Thank-you for taking the time to do that.

On the friction sway bar, once you install it, how tight do you tighten it?

Once I had my hitch set up properly, over 12 yrs ago I stop lifting the truck rear with the trailer tounge. I just pull up on the breaker bar, hook on the 5th link and call er a day. Been doing this issue free for 12yrs now. Any thoughts on doing it that way?

just came along your channel and LOVE the content. Just purchased a 5.7 tundra 4x4. beast of a truck. setting up my WD hitch tomorrow and your other video regarding that will help a lot. thanks for the videos

With a tongue weight of, say, 800, shouldn't a properly setup WDH add 400 to each axle?

My brain for whatever reason can’t comprehend how these hitches work, I know they help but ya…..trailer still hooked up to your hitch so it shouldn’t make a difference (in my mind) Nice video btw Anyways got a question what is the sharpest turn you can do with the sway control? Can you drive in town and do a 90 turn? Like taking a right at end of the block. They look like they’ll bind up

Tomorrow I'm setting up my wds this video is going to help me a lot thanks for sharing my man
