Picked up our new van yesterday (non Jayco but calling on the experience of this helpful group) and the height of the hitch was way too high for our Ford Ranger.
the van is like an Outback with independent suspension 16in wheels and a D035 hitch.
But when we went to hook up there was a huge difference, 200mm, in the height of the hitch to the towbar on the Ranger. The Ranger is standard with standard towbar.
Looking for suggestions on how to fix this? Got around it temporarily by getting a hitch riser on the Ranger which gave us 100mm.
I think the D035 should have been recessed into the chassis and mounted to a plate on the bottom of the drawbar.
Suggestions brains trust ????
