So I've been named project manager for a gooseneck hitch install in a '97 Ford with a short bed.
Does anyone set the hitch back some in a short bed? I'm thinking that turning with stock trailers may be an issue if the hitch is directly over the axle like usual.
It's one of those things where we don't have livestock so we never tow a stock trailer, but we may one day. So if 99% of towing is with a normal necked trailer, do you set the hitch over the axle and just turn carefully with a stock trailer? Are ride quality and weight distribution significant enough to set it over the axle no matter what?
Thanks.
