Before you can make a decision on which WDH to purchase you need to know the ball weight of your fully laden van.

WDH's are made to suit a specific ball weight range.

the caravan place should have told you what to get or to put on
I had to leave my car there for 6 hrs before I picket up my van
And they installed the brake controller and Hayman Reese WDH
and they set the van up the way it should be


Cheers John

I see you're from WA. Go and see George Day caravans. They should be able to give you all the help you need.

That weight will be with an empty van I suspect.
