Hi Everyone,
I hope you all are happy and well. I haven't posted a question in a while, but could use some insight. I bought a new to me 2015 Silverado 1500 Z71, but my
Scamp is in storage, on jacks, about 45 miles from here.
I can't quite remember the coupler height on my 2012
Scamp 13...so long ago that I had to work all that out with my last vehicle. Maybe 16-3/4, but that seems high. My Silverado has a hitch height of 20 inches.
Wondering if I should get one of those adjustable ball mounts for the first trip out to pick her up, as I'm so unsure, or just take chances with either a 3-1/4 or 4 inch drop?
I'll never use the adjustable again, as I'd rather have a dedicated ball mount. And there's nobody at the building it's stored to have check it, which is rather pointless anyway as it's on jacks.
The adjustables I've seen seem to increase by 1-1/2 inches, with a Connor going from 3 to 4-1/2 and so on. I wonder if 3 inch drop would put me nose up, and 4-1/2 drop put me nose down? Was originally thinking to buy a 4 inch drop and that oughta do it for the 40 miles or so home...I've got ball mounts everywhere, but no size like what I think I'll need.
Just wondered what you would all do. There's not alot of stores around where my trailer is stored at the lake, so my choices on the day of
Scamp pick up will be limited.
Much obliged,
Wendy
