    @sometimes1 did you find you were popping the standard hitch off or just put that on from the start? Easy enough to diy if you buy the parts?

    That sort of hitch is what the Australians have on there off road caravan and camper trailers tow awesome at high way speed they have awesome articulation you can get some interesting angles and you know the trailer is not going to come off

    Edit - maybe misread hitch type - if eye to eye is the same as ring/lunette hitches, they're fantastic. Can get a ball/ring hitch combo on a 50mm square tube insert so you can tow either as well.
