Question:
I have adjusted the system as far as it will go, and the bars are still about two inches below the bottom of my a-frame. I have a 2009 Ford Escape, and an R-Pod 172. What can I do?

First, make sure that you park the tow vehicle and the R-pod on level ground. Then level the ball. Next, adjust the hitch up or down so the top of the ball is level with the top of the coupler. Once you are certain everything is as level as possible, tilt the head accordingly. Tilt it towards the tow vehicle to raise the spring bars or tilt it towards the trailer to lower the spring bars.
