Thanks Gord, it does. I had to reposition the pintle hook on my TJ and now it matches the 20" measurement. I'm getting a trailer sometime this winter and want it to ride in the proper attitude.

Funny the Iltis measurement is 2" shorter but I guess that's to accommodate the tyres on the Iltis trailer - I hadn't thought of that. My pintle hook was 16 1/2" in its old position but is now 20", so I can now take a trailer with 7.00x16s.

Now, just to find the right trailer for the right price...

Cheers,

Geoff

Hope this helps.
