    No I don't want an extension. I want the plug to be up by the license plate like God intended

    I can’t take credit for this. Took screen shots on this topic when I was researching the 4R. Planning to get a hitch to tow my boat this spring and will cross this bridge.

    I wish I had captured the screen name of the person who was OP on this topic back when. They might be able to give you more guidance

    This looks like it might work anything would be better than getting down on my knees and elbows just to plug the trailer in like I'm doing now. Not sure what the engineerds we're thinking when they designed the Mount location for the trailer harness. They clearly weren't coonasses, rednecks or hillbillies
