So I just got a new vehicle the other day, and the hitch on it is higher than my previous vehicle's. My previous vehicle was an SUV that had an aftermarket hitch installed, so it was lower to the ground resulting in me having to use a 1" rise ball mount. The trailer tongue was perfectly level.
Now with this new SUV, I'll be needing a drop. So I got a 4" drop ball mount. But it isn't perfectly level. Now, I've read some places that say it can be high or low 1" either way and that's fine. Other places say if it's gonna be off, it is better if the tongue is raised as opposed to being lower, and other places say the opposite. In the past I've always been lucky with getting trailer tongues perfectly level.
Do you guys think this is level enough? Would a 5" drop (do they even make 5") be better, or would that drop it too much?
It is a single axle trailer, so it shouldn't be affected too much if it isn't level, right?
Here's a few pics. The first pic is right behind the coupler. That's where it's measuring the tongue being a tad high. A little further back and the readings are different. Appreciate it!
