One more question for tonite-hitch height

What would be the approximate height of the trailer hitch on the 29 RLS? I want to prepare for the trailer and adjust the receiver prior to picking up the unit

Lightbulb Truck height versus trailer height

The receiver on my GMC is ~18" centre. With our previous trailer the ball was dropped 5" to level the trailer. It seems the new trailers are considerably higher and the trailer hitch will be closer to the height of the truck ~18". I just don't know the height. Any ideas?

This question gets asked from time to time without receiving a specific answer. Probably because people don’t have this info on hand and/or have the same trailer as you.

Based on my setup, the top of the ball is at about 21” when hooked up. If you set your hitch ball to 22-23” at the top when unloaded, you’ll be close.
