Hitch Question
Hello to all! Finally the trip I was to make a year ago has come
![]() I have traded my 8x16 trailer for a 5x10 strong box, this one is from the floor to the ball 12 1/2" the receiver on my truck is at 23 1/4" (11 1/4" deficit) My question to you guys with lifted trucks is there any such a hitch w/ a 24" drop? My existing receiver it is 12" drop and I need 11 1/4" more to pull the trailer level to the road, I'll be driving 2500K Miles, any suggestions will be truly appreaciated. Thanks in advance. |

Do the trailer leafs have any adjustment holes? Travel trailers usually do. Idk about box trailers.

Why do you need a 24" drop anyway? All you need is the difference from the receiver tube to the trailer coupler.
B&W's biggest drop is a 9". ![]() Andersen's is a 10". 3414 10" Rapid Hitch 1-7/8" |

I just looked at the springs no adjustment holes, it is a utility trailer.

So you're saying that it's 24" between the two measurements in the pic? |
|

|
Yes, that is my hickup! what to do now? Maybe put some 37's on the trailer..LOL.

Can you take a pic of it. For some reason with a six inch lift i cant imagine needing a 24" drop.
|

That sounds awful extreme.
Hard to imagine that with your 6" lift and a 12" drop hitch that the hitch is still 24" off the ground. That would put your reciver at 36" off the ground! |
