There are a NUMBER of trailer hitches out there
that can be used and some other techniques which are SIMPLE. Don't
make such a high tech change. Low tech: get one that you set
up so it DROPS down from your bumper. Higher cost one: the
telescoping type, costs about $l00 or so but is nice when you are hooking up
alone. Place the ball so it drops down instead of up. Look at
other types. I have seen a LOT of low riding ones on various big
pickups. I use the telescoping one on my motor home which is class A and
has higher bumper than my pickup which has higher bumper than my van
did. Truck is 4x4. Go to a truck trailer store which has a big
inventory. Even one that caters to l8 wheelers. I can't use the
telescoping one on my truck as it puts it too low and the one I use on my
truck is not low enough. SOOOOOOO have more than one hitch. Good
luck. mas
I believe she is talking about a gooseneck which sets on the bed of the
truck.
