It also comes in a trunnion style, which is a little more expensive. We have the round bar, and it works great.

Greetings: Do a little research online. WDH come in several configurations. The torsion bar type using chains require you to disconnect the bars before backing up, and are priced a little lower. Other types use bars that slide back and forth or like my EAZ-LIFT Recurve R3 has a hitch that swivels. They all work, I liked this design the best. Crankster78 R-179

What is the full-up weight of the trailer? Multiply that by 0.11 to get an idea what it should be. For example, for a gross trailer weight of 3850, the tongue should be "around" 423 lbs.

That seems low. My 178, not overloaded is at 380.
