Bobi and Dick McKee Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 Our new MDT came with an air hitch. Should I let the air out to relax the bags when we are not towing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skp51443 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 You don't need to but I liked to let mine down to the point that the hitch was between the stops, just enough to not be tight against the top one. I found it was easier to re-hitch with the air at that level as it was enough to make sure I didn't high-hitch but not enough to push the fiver back trying to wedge it up onto the hitch plate.

grumpydoc Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 If its a TrailerSaver hitch you should let all the air out of the hitch before you unhitch the 5er to avoid the hitch popping up when pulling out and possibly damaging something. Don't ask how one might know this! Now the hitch is deflated as you bobtail the truck. When you get ready to re hitch just back in under the 5er. I re inflate the hitch after hooked up. Been doing this for years and see no reason to do otherwise, Best Wishes, Jay 2015 Continental Coach Elegance by Forks RV, 41'; 2015 FL M2 112, DD 13, by 2L Custom Trucks; Trailer Saver air hitch; '48 Navigoddess with a Rand McNally GPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
