hitch drop question

[rdetl]

I just bought a 2019 rebel and wonder what hitch drop you guys are using. I don't have access to a trailer as my boat is in strorage. the measurement to my receiver is 23 inches in normal ride height.

Do u have air suspension. If so it will automatically level out... I say 4inch drop hitch they do have those that are adjustable up and down depending on what height u need

I have air suspension and have looked at adjustable drop.

I have Laramie with the off-road package, my receiver is 22”, I pull a tandem axle trailer with 15” wheels (don’t recall the tire size) and a 14” hitch height. 6” drop is perfect, I tried an old 4” ball mount I had and the back of the trailer was to low and would almost drag at times

You need to check it with your trailer. Not all trailers are the same.

I pull 4 different size / type of trailers and needed a min of 6" drop in Normal mode and 4 in Aero....so I bought a Weigh Safe WS8-2 KA, adjustable that's capable of 10"up and 8" down.......so I've got everything covered & I can read my tongue weight by scale.

Is that to the top of the receiver or the bottom?

Top of the hitch

I have a 2019 with no lift. Pulled a couple of UHauls with a 2 inch drop hitch

It all depends on your trailer. You need to measure your truck, then level your trailer on flat ground and measure that. At that point you can subtract the two and get your needed drop.

Here is a good video explaining it. I have an adjustable hitch to accomodate a few different trailers I use.

I got a 6 inch drop / 7 inch raise Aluminum shank with all three size Stainless adjustable ball mounts. I have Air Ride and it doesn't hit or drag in entry/exit height everywhere so far and it is also anti-rattle. https://www.etrailer.com/Drop-Hitch/Fastway/DTSTBM6600-3S.html
