E2 WDH model recommendation

What is the best location to check for tow level? I have a bubble T level that I set in the middle of the floor for set-up, but I find that varies from level on the tongue portion of the frame for towing. AND that is also slightly off from checking level on the frame toward the rear of the pod. AND and I find that if I adjust for frame level at the tongue it just "looks" a bit off.

The closer to level the better. Just a few degrees or inches of tilt front to back will affect the settings. Take your wrenches, pad, and tape measure to a schoolyard on a weekend or a churchyard on a week day. Proper setup will take several iterations. A PITA but it's worth it. 

We also use the 600/6000. Read and  follow the owners manual for setting up your wd hitch. I found the people at Equalizer to be very helpful. I had to add an additional washer to my setup and they really helped me get it dialed in properly. We have towed with it for 5 years on several cross country trips. It works.

I've never heard of anyone with body damage.

Originally posted by techntrek The manufacturer confirmed to me years ago that it is ok to use a heavier-rated model, so I've always recommended the 600/6000.  As Charlie said, you can transfer it to another camper.

One possible exception is a unibody vehicle. Heavier rating means less flex, which may end up damaging body panels. My Highlander is unibody and is rated to 5000 pounds; I figure 600/6000 is close enough. I think the round bar models flex more than the trunnion models, which may be something to consider if your TV is a unibody.
