Equalizing hitch is a must. They are usually a class 4.

I was behind a friend of mine going up to Watkins Glen. He's got his open trailer with a Mustang racer and a regular hitch pulled by an Explorer.

It starting swaying and it got worse....and worse.....until he almost jackknifed right in front of me. The truck and trailer were literally at 45 degree angles bouncing! I was scared for him, I thought he was a goner.

Do your self a favor and spend the money on the hitch.

I tow a 20 ft enclosed trailer with an Expedition with the equalizing hitch and it tows beautifully, never any problem.

Now be careful towing Gary Emery's old GT40.

Y'ALL HAVE A GREAT DAY!

PS - Good to have you back!
