[A/S] Re: Hensley hitching was Problem with gas
Tony, to unhook, I take the tension of the spring bars (sloppy
loose), unhook the chains, umbilical cord, and loosen the over center
latches. Then I squat down and look closely at the hitch reciever and
run the jack up or down until I see the hitch bar move slightly up or
down in the receiver (its a very small amount of movement). At that
point, the hitch bar will often come slightly out on its on or is
loose enough to easily drive away.

Wow, I use a six inch drop bar on our Chevy 2500. I have a 4 inch bar
but felt the trailer was still a little "nose high". I prefer level
to slightly "nose low".
