I just flipped the ball on the hitch. Try that first. Those is what I did to mine and I’m level.

I put a pintle/lunette hitch on my teardrop trailer and love it. Best of everything in my opinion.

This was on my JL but I use the same receiver for the JTR. I'm running Timbren long-travel suspension on the trailer and it's fantastic.

The rubber thingy on the pintle ball is a 3" length of radiator hose. Just quiets the stops and starts. It's otherwise no noiser than a ball hitch, hella articulation and with the rearview camera, my grandmother could hook it the first time Everytime. Hitch height is just over 22".

That hose thing is an awesome idea. I have a few trailers with pintle hooks and hate the banging especially in traffic.

Wow, I really like that camper. That's a perfect size, IMO.

I've been using the Lock n Roll on ours the past 3 years with no complaints. Still tight and quiet.
