The thing about not clicking I was trying to hook up this last trip in the forest and did not hear it click so let it idle back a bit to make sure and it slid the trailer back a foot. Of course I had not removed the wheel chocks, I use the BAL X-type.

And thanks I think you recommitted the B&W also have the ball.

Thank you for mentioning the slide bar to make sure there are brakes! That is one thing I really need to start doing.

We tow a 43' TH @ 18k w/ a F350 DRW puck system. Not too heavy to remove, which is rare for us, and only takes 15 to 20 minutes given the simple puck hookup. Check it out as an option. Also it's American made.

X2. PullRite is doing a nice job with our Toy Hauler. We have the puck system in our F350 and it fits perfectly.
