Alot of guys use these when towing campers, but does anyone use one to pull there boat? Here's what I'm talking about: <BR> <BR>{url}<a href="http://www.stylinconcepts.com/part.cfm?PartID=487282&amp;PartFamilyID=1529&amp;S ubCategoryID=190&amp;CategoryID=29" target="_blank">http://www.stylinconcepts.com/part.cfm?PartID=487282&amp;PartFamilyID=1529&amp;S ubCategoryID=190&amp;CategoryID=29</a> <BR> <BR>I'm really trying to get the ultimate towing set-up for my DROPPED GMC. Thanks for any input! <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR>

I used to sell these weight distributing hitches and I had one for a 32' trailer. In my opinion it would be overkill, depending on the size of your boat. If you are pulling something over 30' I would recommend it. If you are looking to keep your truck balanced and level for a traditional ski/wake boat, I would use airbags as the distibuting hitches are built for much heavier tounge weight and wont make a big difference.

Most boats are pretty well placed on the trailer to provide a certain amount (and relatively light at that) of tongue weight. Load-leveling hitches are typically required for a camper, especially when you start loading them up and the tongue weight goes way up.

I use the WD hitch at work, when I tow 9000lb + diesel generators. Not needed for the SAN. Ditto what Jason says about the airbags - especially on a dropped vehicle. Watch out for shallow launch ramps...

I already run bags, I'm just looking to reduce the rear bouncing a bit

Actually, with the use of surge brakes on these trailers alot of the manufacturers will not recommend WD hitches. <BR> <BR>I know the surge brakes that DHM use, UFP, allows the use of WD hitches. <BR> <BR>Check with the surge manufacture and/or trailer manufacturer. <BR> <BR>But, in all reality our boats are light in comparison to travel trailers so, there really isn't much need. <BR> <BR>Chris <BR>Get the Grip you Deserve <BR><a href="http://www.wakejunky.com" target="_blank">www.wakejunky.com</a>
