Still, if the hitch is completely blind, the tool above is a tremendous help. Easy to use. Attach one right on the top of the hitch ball (for a gooseneck), the other directly on top of the gooseneck itself. Keep the two in alignment as you are backing up to hitch. Once they touch, they will both fall off or fall over because they are magnetic. You are now spot on!
You can find these at Wall Mart (RV section), Amazon, Home Depot, E-bay and most RV dealership's parts stores. |
Interesting idea if I have any steel to stick it to.
