Well, today I installed a hensley hitch on my ST30RE. It was a fairly easy job but two people make it a lot easier, to line things up. We had a perfect day to test the hensley, there was a 30 mph cross wind blowing when we hit the hiway.

The hitch does just what it is advertised to do. no whip or sway in the strong 30 mph cross wind at seventy mph.

Pulled it with both tvs a chevy avalanche and a gmc 2500 hd .

Im Very pleased with it. No white knuckes in a 30mph cross wind !

fyi - depending on the tires on your unit they maybe only be rated for a max speed of 65mph. So if your fully weighted down you may want to be careful with the speed during hot sunny days.

Goodyear Marathons are rated for 70mph at 70psi.

Happy Camping
