Thanks ahead. What is the method to 'balance' the trailer/boat to my truck? Nissan Frontier (4cyl) with Reese hitch, 18' boat with 140hp OB. Maybe take it to the place I had the hitch installed?
Howdy 140.<br /><br />There is a good chance that it can't be done. You need to find out how much your rig weighs and how much weight the truck is rated to tow.<br /><br />Do not, under any circumstances try towing more than your truck is rated for. You can safely tow about half of the rated trailer weight without trailer brakes and about 75% of the rating with brakes.<br /><br />The issue is not your truck's ability to move with the trailer behind. It is your ability to control and stop the trailer. <br /><br />If your frontier is 2 wheel drive and stick shift you will not be able to pull the rig up a steep ramp.<br /><br />Sorry to bear such bad news, but remember: You bet your life on that rig every time you leave the driveway.<br /><br />Good luck..
