Finally got the correct ball mount
« on: February 04, 2007, 11:33:39 PM »

BTW, is this also called a "stinger"Huh

Anyway, I finally got an 8" drop to hook up to my flatbed trailer. 

Looks like it keeps the trailer pretty level which is good considering the last one was off by about 6"!!! Shocked

Now the only thing stopping me from going next weekend is pouring rain (hopefully it won't!!)

Thanks!  I was REALLY shocked at how much of a drop was required to hook it up to the new Dodge!! 
The actual drop was 9" in order to make the trailer completely level!! Shocked

Never would have thought that till we measured it!! Undecided

LMAO!!  Well, the short of it is, there IS no lift that I am aware of??  Its just stock, the way it came from the factory.  I was just surprized at how much of a drop was necessary from a stock truck. Huh

Yeah.  My dad thought it was about a 3" drop, so thats what I bought first......
WRONG!! Roll Eyes   LMAO!!!

Had to take that one back and go get the 8" drop (which was still about 1" too short lol)

The 8" works well when the YFZ is in the back and the other quad is positioned slightly forward on the trailer. Wink
