Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Trailer Mate 5th Wheel Hitch


Has anyone seen anything on this new style hitch. It looks good and has some nice features.

http://www.trailermatehitch.com/index.asp

I'm looking at trying to reduce the verticle motion on the truck and 5er. I would also like to reduce the bucking. One problem I have is the hitch I have is the 16k reese that doesn't have full contact on the pin. I can feel the pin move when starting and stopping.

I'm trying to get something in the next month to get ready for this years traveling.

Thanks,

Gary

Any of the air ride hitches or pinboxes are great..and priced accordingly. I have a Pullrite which has a very good system to secure the pin tightly and I use a Trail-Aire Tri-Glide pinbox to eliminate chucking and bouncing. Works good about 80% of the time.
