Question:

I pull a small utility trailer and it drives me nuts to hear the rattling noise, however, your description talks about hitch accessories and not towing. Is it bad to use this while towing? Or will it not keep the rattle down on towing trailers. Mine is only 5x8 utility trailer. Really light under 1700lbs

Expert Reply:

The Brophy Stabilizer Bracket, part # RHSB is designed for non-towing accessories to prevent shifting and rattling.

I recommend the Blue Ox Hitch Receiver Immobilizer, part # BX88224. This fits 2 inch trailer hitches and with the U-bolt design eliminates the wobble and rattle that is so annoying as you said.

I have attached a product review for the # BX88224 you can check out.
