People in Wisconsin have a lot of things to haul around and living in a state with access to a lot of wonderful lakes makes this hauling ability imperative. For example, hooking up a trailer with your boat and going to a beautiful area like Marinuka Lake for a little fishing is an excellent way to spend the weekend. Of course, this requires that your vehicle is equipped with the best Trailer Hitches in Wisconsin that can handle a boat trailer. However, boats aren’t the only water based recreational activity. There are jet skis, camping and swimming that each require specific equipment. While some of these won’t require pulling a lot of weight you might still wish to consider a weekend in the camper.
Trailer Hitches in Wisconsin are typically considered as the part which connects to the trailer tongue and the socket on that trailer although certain rental trailer companies list the vehicle portion of the hitch as distinct. The typical trailer hauled by small pickup trucks and passenger cars usually has a fixed tongue socket designed to hold a ball shaped hitch. This design was standardized to make pulling a trailer more convenient as well as a little safer. The ball hitch usually comes in one and one quarter inch or two inch sizes and can be removed to install a bicycle mount if properly installed. You have a choice of a bolt on trailer hitch which is secured under the vehicle and may mount to the frame or bumper system depending on the vehicle type and manufacturer or a removable style hitch that connects to the bumper although these usually don’t handle as much weight.
The second most common hitch is the fifth wheel. This is a class five trailer hitch that mounts in the bed of a pickup truck over the rear axles. This type of mount uses a plate in the bed of the truck for extra strength. The connection is usually a heavy ring which is secured with a pin through the trailer neck. These types of hitches are designed to pull heavier loads and are typically installed on heavy duty trucks.
