I'm thinking about making a couple of shields out of sheet metal mounted up and down along the edge of the hitch to 'catch' the grease when its thrown. What do you guys think? Anybody else have this problem?
My guess if you were getting slammed so hard you thought the rear axle was going to break, your 5er is just beating the he!! Out of your great mask the issue hitch!
Your 5er has a suppension issue, or weight balance issue I see it is a MS so assume it has shocks, does it tow level? Do you have enough pin weight 20% to 25% on a 5er that heavy.
