Smart phone camera in selfie mode works great for visual inspection for those of us with backs that refuse to get down low enough to see under it.Please dont put you fingers under the ball hitch , ever.

Please dont put you fingers under the ball hitch , ever. If it shifts because its not hooked up right, you will loose them. After hooking up, raise the front toung. If it pulls the ball up and raises the TV you are corectly hitched up. Keep the ball area greased well. And that latch underneath is adjustable/ replaceable of its not catching properly. To check that hook up to a ball hitch, without the TV attached.
If in doubt, just keep crankingI find it difficult to tell when you're just taking weight off the rear springs (which will happen even if it's not latched properly) or actually lifting up the rear end.
Here’s another thing to think about. Many yrs ago when I was in a pit crew, We got a new tow vehicle so of course we had to have a hitch installed etc. Had it all done by professionals . First race of the yr got all hooked up. Double checked, chains hooked up, lights working etc. Going down the expressway The trailer passes us on the right hits a ditch destroys car and trailer. We get out and look. Trailer hitch broke before the mount For the safety chains!! Hitch company had to buy us a new trailer and modified race car plus replace the hitch. Since then I don’t attach the safety chain and break away cable to the hitch.
The lack of safety chains is likely not legal, and exposes you to huge lawsuits if your trailer damages other vehicles and persons - especially if one person is pregnant and miscarries after the trauma of the accident. The settlement would be more than the value of your house/car/boat/pup combined.I don't have safety chains on my PUP. I figure if that baby comes lose I have no way to out run it before it tears up my TV No since in the PUP and the TV destroyed right>)
Safety chains are just common sense.I don't have safety chains on my PUP.
Anthony and Wrkrbee, I am insured by Smith & Wesson so I don't have to worry about insurance. Also please note smiley face on my post. You were too interested in jumping on someone to pay attention and you have been hadSafety chains are just common sense.

Anthony, my friend you are gona have to get use to the good ole US of A. Loosen your neck tie, relax, sit back, have a cold one, you are going to be taking heart med's if you are not already. Italians eat a lot garlic, that is supposed to help your blood pressure. Believe nothing of what you hear and only 1/2 of what you see, Unless you hear it from me. If I tell you that a jack rabbit can pull a freight train hook him up. If I tell you that a hen dip's snuff look under her wing and you will find the can. Now the last 2 sentences or like your DAGO tireWell, sorry if I took what you wrote at face value and that's not actually what you meant. Being raised in a different country I don't always pick up on Texas humor.

Do you know what a Smith & Wesson is?I understand that you were kidding about not having safety chains (I think?) but what does smith and wesson have to do with getting sued for not having safety chains?
Somehow or another I believe that.none of my hens ever dipped snuff, I was too cheap to buy it for them.
