Hi all,
I'm finding out that my driveway / street are not a good combo for hitching up when backing straight in. There is a dip in the driveway to street coupled along with a downhill angle of the street. I'm thinking I can back in at an angle from downhill side to hook up. The only problem is with the angle, one of the bars will not reach to connect it. Is it ok to hook up the WDH without the bars on and take it to a more level place to put the bars on once I leave the driveway? I was told if the angle of the dip is too steep, it could bend the bars. Trying not to destroy our hitch and truck :rolleyesgif. Sorry for the sideways pic, not sure how it got that way.
Also, how bad is it if you lift one of the truck tires off the ground with the tongue jack?....(I know ) Didn't know that could happen.
