    Default Stallion Trailer Hitch Height

    I found a trailer I like, but the tongue height is 17”. My Stallion hitch height is 10 1/2” to the top of the ball. I’m wondering if this is too much of a difference and what the best way to level the trailer out would be.



    Any suggestions?
    Anyone get a good look at these trailers.

    I cannot find one of these trailers around here to check it out.

    anybody with any welding ability can step the coupler down to fit your stallion, or take it to a welding shop and then have it done, its very simple

    Looking at their ad indicates that the trailer tongue is also aluminum. Personally, I would modify the hitch on the Stallion to get the ball up higher. That allows the use of the trailer on automobiles also... Just thinkin.....

    Be sure of your information, my wife has a Stallion and the same trailer and we made no adjustments. The above picture is we are getting ready for a Christmas parade. You can see it is level.


    OOPS on edit, it is a different trailer ours is a MCTXL

    You may want to look for another trailer, as you are so far off the height, you may be risking a failure of the hitch attachement. I say that because it seems you are raising the connection point on the hitch by about 7" and this will create a lever which will amplify the forces or stresses acting on the bottom of the hitch as to lower the rated hitch capacity. The further you raise the head of the hitch the more amplified the forces become on the lower hitch point. The connection point on the hitch attachment may be at the same level that you are making your connection, but it is lowered by the reciever to clear the body work, and then you appear to be raising it back up to that same level to make your connection. This creates a "U". Any vibration or other stresses will be amplifed by the distance from the bottom of the "U". You may want to investigate making the hitch work through the bumper or finding another way to brace the hitch as to not cause a "U" or the resulting structural lever.

    The simplest thing may be to stick with a Motorcycle camper.

    I just had my hitch drawbar reworked. I had a welder friend cut my drawbar and add in a 45 degree angle to the bar which brought the height of the bar up 3.5 inches which made my trailer ride level. I have a fiberglass trailer out of South Carolina which I used the 17" as the correct height. It just cost me a case of beer to get it done, but I hope to be able to help him drink it later. Any welding shop can do this and should cost under $30.00.

    Can you post the pic again? It is an old post and the pic is gone. I would be very interested in your $20 fix.

    Harbor Freight has an adjustable height hitch which I have to use for my tow dolly as it has 12" wheels, very reasonably priced as well. Tomg

    i wielded a piece of square tubing on top of the hitch drilled it for locking pin and then went to ADvance auto parts and bought a 1 1/4 inch drawbar hitch works great which raised the ball almost two inches , then i added a one by four inchs 3/4 inch thick flat bar on the bottom drilled with two holes one on each side for safety chain hooks. for myself it works easier to disconnect and adds about four inches between trike and trailer.

    Any suggestions?
