Do I need a WDH on a 2014 4x4 EL Expy if tongue weight is only 575 lbs?
I finally was able to try out the trailer and the Expy. I measured the change in height pre- to post-hitch, it moved less than a 1/2". I towed it sans WDH and one hardly noticed it back there. I put the WDH on and didn't notice a difference (the advantage of a low popup trailer that is...- Sauropod

The 5,100 pounds becoming 4,100 pounds was a typo on my part. The 4,100 weight is accurate, the typist? Not so much! Thanks for that CAT scale locator link! The closest is 20 miles from me. My local Waste Management transfer station (but 3 miles away!) has a scale that provides total...- Sauropod

Hello! First time poster, long time lurker. I might have missed this in the threads over the years, I did try to look but didn't see it (maybe because it is so obvious of an answer? :-)). Do I need a WDH on a 2014 4x4 EL for a trailer who's tongue weight is 575 lbs (weighed with a...- Sauropod
