Sometimes even if the latch is open, I have had the locking piece hang up in the locked position. If you reach up from underneath with your finger or a prybar you should be able to pop it down into the open position. If you still cannot get it to work, I suggest
laying under it on a creeper and actuating the latch and see what is going on in there while you do it.</div>

<b>Subject:</b> [Shop-talk] Holy m#therf*cking ChrI$t HOW TO GET A TRAILER ONTO THE HITCH</font>
<div> </div>
</div>
<div class="BodyFragment"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">
<div class="PlainText">Need a little help, fellas, before I attack this thing with a sledge.<br>
<br>
New H-F trailer. Requires a 1 7/8" ball.<br>
<br>
I get a 1 7/8" ball. Test fit the ball into the hitch receiver before <br>
installing on hitch.<br>
<br>
Now it's all put together and the F*C(ING THING WON'T GO ON.<br>
<br>
It's behaving as if:<br>
<br>
1) the ball is too big (it isn't, everything is 1 7/8")<br>
<br>
2) the latch is in the closed position (it's up)<br>
<br>
3) there's something inside the ball receiver (there's not--I've checked <br>
1,000,000,000 times).<br>
<br>
The receiver is just sitting on top of the ball and won't drop over it.<br>
<br>
Is there a trick I don't know about, or can I beat the ever living hell <br>
out of this thing (because that's exactly what I'd like to do right now).<br>
<br>
Everything here is new, clean, etc. I've hooked up trailers before. I <br>
have no idea what the hell's going on here.<br>
<br>
Send help.<br>
