Thank you for your information. I have the hitch pretty stable. I think it might be that my vehicle is 4,000 pounds and I have a very large distance from my rear axle to the hitch.

Converter question

Should the fan in my Inteli-Power PD9 160A be running? Mine is not. Is the fan controlled with a fuse? I see 2 fuses on the box, but have not pulled any. Thought I would query you gentlemen first.
