Hi Alan, To drop the weight down to something manageable for one person you could switch to the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch #C16120 (116lbs) along with the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch #C29BR (95lbs). The head of the A16 can also be…

Thank you for the photo of your 2016 Ram 3500's bed rail which sits 59-inches above ground. You are correct that the recommended minimum clearance between a bed rail and the underside of the trailer's overhang is 5 to 6-inches, as shown in…

Thanks for all the detailed information! Given the taller height of your 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500, I recommend the 10" rise or 6" drop Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank item #EQ90-02-4900 you were looking at. I strongly agree with you not…
