<div>Jon , when you reduce the hitch weight, your probably getting more height out of your truck hitch. I am sure that is the issue.</div><div>Hank</div><div><br></div>

I pulled the sub back about 15 inches which got it to 5% and then took it for a short drive. Based upon sound only, it does sound like that forward spring is "topping out" against the frame when I hit a dip in the road but also recovering. When I stopped I could see that the spring eye was not butted up against the frame, unlike the other night when I had tongue weight at 10%. Not much of a road test but I did get up to 55 without any hint of sway. I may pull the sub back another inch and then take it for a longer road test tonight including the highway.<span></span></div><div class="yiv3978913724yqt6419565376" id="yiv3978913724yqtfd62977"><div dir="ltr" id="yiv3978913724yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533061618142_45323"><br clear="none"></div><div dir="ltr" id="yiv3978913724yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533061618142_45323"><br clear="none"></div></div></div></div></div><div class="yqt6419565376" id="yqtfd83465">_______________________________________________<br clear="none">Personal_Submersibles mailing list<br clear="none"><a shape="rect" ymailto="mailto:Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org" href="mailto:Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org">Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org</a><br clear="none"><a shape="rect" href="http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles" target="_blank">http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles</a><br clear="none"></div></div>
