As we're getting ready to make our first trip with the DP pulling a 22' motorcycle trailer I've got a question regarding the type hitch I should purchase. I'm going to need a hitch with a 4" drop to keep the trailer level as we drive. Once we reach our destination, dump the air and set the jacks the DP will be 6" closer to the ground. This will result in the tongue of the trailer down and rear/ramp of the trailer up; probably too high to offload the bikes.
If I buy an adjustable hitch with enough drop or rise to compensate for the 6" differential, will that solve my problem by allowing me to lower the trailer jack, pull the pin (on the adjustable ball) while the DP rises or lowers?
Has anyone already dealt with this situation? If so, how did you manage?
