    My wife and I are getting close to buying our first travel trailer: Coachman Apen Nano 193BHS. 3495 lbs dry and 370 hitch weight.

    I've heard really good things about the Anderson 3380 sway and WDH. Any reports?
    https://andersenhitches.com/Product...h-8-droprise-2516-ball-3-4-5--6-brackets.aspx

    Additionally, I have a 3" lift with Dakar springs and Timbren bump stops. Will I need something to prevent sagging or will the wdh solve that? Thanks!

    No experience with that hitch. I have a Recurve R3 hitch and like it. The WDH will prevent the sagging for the most part. Mine is lifted 3" with Dakars also. I have more weight than you do on mine. See pic below. You can also adjust it after you get it loaded.

    I’m looking to get a Winnebago 2100BH, dry weight is 3760. Hitch weight is 460, GVWR is 7000. I already installed a P3 controller just incase I decide to get it and will order a WDH. Is this camper too much weight? I will never travel with fresh water because everywhere I usually camp it already has the facilities. I might add I have OME 3” lift w/ dakars w/ AAL. Trailer also has dual axles.

    Mine is 1100 lbs more dry than yours. You'll be fine.

    Do you have aftermarket rear bumper? If so does the hitch go low enough to be at the proper level? I have a BruteForce Fab bumper and hitch is integrated and I run like a 6” drop hitch.

    Still running the factory bumper and hitch on mine. They make different drops for the WDH's so they should have one to fit your need.

    Welcome to the family! We have a Tiger Moth and love it. There are some good Face Book pages for them also


    I think I have more fun modding the camper than the truck. I did an ass load of stuff last year

    Wow! Never heard of Outdoors Rv until now. They are seriously well built trailers. Very swanky interior! But I think a dry weight approaching 6000 lbs and a 700+ hitch weight is just too much for my Taco.

    Little Coleman with all the comforts of home. Just did a spring over and now going to step up tire size. Last year I pulled this through 7 states and wheeled in 4 of them. I like the smallness of it, truck can pull it at 80+ mph of I need to pass something. Here are a couple of pics, one from last year's trip and 1 from last week after SOA.

    Yes, just looked at the Nash and they re of the same quality. Unfortunately, I have a 15k budget and we want a bunkhouse/slider trailer with a sink in the bathroom. There are only a handful in that price range and the Apex Nano 193BHS seems to be the best option for us right now.
