Hi, just purchased a 2013 VRV 8.5x18 Toy Hauler. It currently has a robust RAM Class IV, 2-5/16, rated gross 14,000 and tongue 2100. Have used Bulldog hitches for years and always enjoyed their ease of use. So, was considering a swap. The downside of this idea is that the Bulldog is a weld-on unit and mods are not recommended. I can live with the ACE although it hung while unhitching. (needs lubrication). I already have an Andersen WD that I plan to mount on the trailer. The ACE is mounted with 4, 1/2" bolts in the vertical position. I can't reinforce the coupler as recommended elsewhere on this site but have worked out a way to reinforce the coupler in a different manner. There doesn't appear to be any distortion in the coupler at present but am considering the reinforcement in order to carry the additional load imposed by the Andersen. I suspect that the ACE hitch is an after market but can't find what was used on the original VRV's. Anybody have an opinion or observation along these lines? Thanks.
