    it's pretty cool to be able to turn your head and look up and down. True POV. Make sure you got a good headband though, no good if the screen is shaking.

    I think you got Brute force high clearance bumper right? I think you can use 2'' hitch receiver with 1 7/8 or 2'' ball. You will have to make sure it is not too high. U-haul does sell all kind of receivers and can recommend which one will work the best.

    Probably gonna need a big drop ball mount. I had to use a 6-inch drop with Dakars on my first gen to get a trailer with 15 ground to hitch clearance level, for reference.

    Get your trailer level and measure ground to bottom of its hitch. That's your baseline to avoid trailer nose-high towing.
