My featherlite has a frame that is over 6 inches tall. How am i supposed to use the equalises hitch so i do not have to drill holes in the tongue?

Expert Reply:
The Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution with Sway Control # RP66084 would fit on your trailer frame as long as it is less than 2-1/2 inches wide.
However, because of the height of the trailer frame, I recommend using the Reese Chain Hangers for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # RP58305 in place of the hangers that come with the system. The hangers # RP58305 will bolt onto the trailer frame and can be placed at an appropriate height for the load bar arms. These hangers will also ensure there is enough room under the frame for the dual cam sway control arms to operate effectively.
