[QUOTE="dmd, post: 1351604, member: 1848"] If a Hensley unlocks he has it adjusted wrong. They have over-center clips that hold it all together and they hold very tight. Any hitch that is setup wrong can have problems. Weight isnt an issue, it stays on the trailer. The only weight is the bar and it weights about the same as a single spring bar from the others. In total it weighs just a little more than the Reese and I dont have to carry it or the spring bars around. There is a learning curve to getting it hooked up, the key is to have the bar and the hitch on the same angle and they go right together. If you read the instructions on how to adjust it there shouldnt be any problems. I can see how if a person doesnt pay attention to adjustments that they would have problems connecting it. I have ran mine up and down the Sierra's, through Yellow Stone, all over Texas, over miles of dirt roads, tire blow-outs and never had a problem. The over center clips should have locking pins that are a double safety even if they are adjusted wrong, suggest that they call Hensley and go over the issue. The only way I can enplane how the Hensley feels is that the truck and trailer feel like they are on rails. Very little push from big trucks or from wind. It is also easier to back up because of the geometry of the hitch, I was not expecting that. [/QUOTE]
