Hitch Height

At the present moment I can't move my camper and can't get a good measurment. What is the hitch height of a Springdale 311 RESSR. Once I get the new hitch on my truck I need to adjust the height.

Don't know anything about a Springdale, but you can also adjust the pin box up or down if the hitch doesn't do it for you. I had to do this for several different trucks. No more, I'm on my last truck, hopefully.

My camper is a bumper pull, no pinbox.

Measure the distance from the ground to the bottom of the frame at the trailer axles and then use the tongue jack to set the front of the frame to the same height. You most likely have a 8 inch frame on that TT so note the height of the coupler from the bottom of the frame and you will be close.
