Hitch question

I hate being the one to point out that your bulb is not at full wattage, but you look like a complete idiot. I have put 1000lbs of tongue weight on my H2.

I used to pull 8-15K lb offshore powerboats with rear hitches just like everybody else does. I pull dozers, tractors and all kinds of equipment with my bumper pull 3/4 ton and 1 ton farm trucks. Grow up.

500 lbs is the max for the h2 so you may wanna rethink that. See above post.

500lbs is max suggested by GM for H2 w/o distribution. Doesn't mean you can't easily put more on it. Grow up.

Andre, this may help you. Then you could switch trailers and easily adjust the hitch. The pic is just one example.

My boat is a seadoo speedster, right now i have a 2 inch drop and the boat does not sit level, just wondering what you guys were using for smaller boats or utility trailers.

[PARAGON]

You might be needing around an 8". I don't really remember how low those trailers ride to the ground but I bet it's not close to level with your 2" drop. They are probably running on small 14" wheels and little tires so your drop needed might be more than you think.

Just use your trailer jack and set the trailer at even, where it should run. Back the truck up to it and measure from the top of your ball you have on there now to the top of the tongue where the ball connects. This should give you a rough idea of how much more drop to buy.

You already have 2" of drop and if the measurement is, say, a little over 5" or so, you would get an 8" drop.

Holy snap I got flamed for posting this exact response!

I'm using an 8" drop hitch for two small utility trailers, and they are very close to level at that height.

There, simple enough.

I run a 11.5" for a utility trailer its real small. I have a Honda RX1200 myself and I use the 5 1/4" drop for that ski, its not perfectly level but its nice for cleaning.

Oh, so now you're calling your blowjob shack on wheels a "utility trailer"? Didn't you used to tow it behind this?

[KenP]

I hope that's not his skinny little ass on the left. Jason, say it isn't so.

This is some pretty extreme off-roading. Bet you had to cool off with a wine spritzer after that.
