As an update I bought the cast pads for the hirch from Amazon since with the free shipping with Prime were less than Etrailer.
That left finding a second friction pad.
I was able to buy some friction material from McMaster Carr and fabricated the steel angle mount duplicating the one I had.
Glued up the friction material to the steel mount and drilled and counter sunk the holes and "Bob's yer Old Man".
I made a short trip to sest the set up and it works perfectly.
The bobbing from the
weight on the pin was much reduced and the Van is level within 1/2 inch before the self levelers start working.
With the Ultimate jack to lift the hitched trailer tongue and rear of the van it is easy to set the arms and pads on the top of the trailer frame.
I have one question.
The WDH sits considerably further away from the bumper than the drawbar I modified drilling a new pin hole.
The question is should this be longer to make a longer arm to transfer the
weight to the front of the van or shortened to keep the pivot point closer to the rear
axle?
Any opinions ??
