RE: [RC] Need advice on trailer hitch - Jim HollandHmmm...I would suggest you take it to a repair place....soon. This probably means that when you get "load" on the gear train, it's binding. If you let it go, pretty soon you will either shear a pin or a gear, and your crank will be freewheeling...no lift at all. You need to have it checked for lubrication and maybe rebuilt ASAP. Several years ago, the one on my trailer was getting increasingly hard to crank. I wanted to go to Old Dominion and didn't have time to get it looked at. Fortunately, I hedged my bet and took along my floor jack and some 4x6 blocks. When I got ready to hook up to leave, nothing....nada...without my floor jack I would have been in deep yogurt.

Thought with all the collective experience and know-how everyone has, you may be able to answer my question. My gooseneck hitch is SO hard to crank. Easy for the first 10-12 turns, then almost imposiible. What should I do to make it easier? Is there some trick to it? Any suggestions and/or ideas are greatly appreciated!!!
