propster Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 The hitch fits in the receiver of the jeep with a little play, so when I'm trailering the boat she clunks and bangs a bit going down the road. Does anyone make an aftermarket shim or cushion or sleeve that can help tighten or quiet this down? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangestew Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Duct Tape worked great for mine. That stuff fixes everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down2Earth Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 My Jeep did the same thing, funny. I never did anything to fix it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEGASLAM Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 By chance, does your boat trailer have a surge brake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid-Lake Rock Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Propster - I had the same thing happening when I bought my last boat. I found the tongue of the trailer was too light. Adjusted the tongue weight and she stopped clunking and banging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wormdrowner Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 I bought the locking pin assembly and it came with an oversize sleeve...stop mine from clunking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
