Hi All,
When hitching the camper trailer to the Prado (I have a 50 mm ball at present) the trailer tilts down at the front due to the height of tow ball. This does make it somewhat difficult at times to get trailer off as there is insufficient height to lower jockey wheel completely.
My initial thoughts were to invert tongue which would have worked perfectly however Toyota inform me the centre of the tow ball can be no more than 460mm off the ground (exactly what it is now).
So what have others done to overcome this? Should I change / adjust jockey wheel so that it can be operated properly and still have trailer a a slight incline? Is there another possible solution?
Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks
