I posted (with pix) how I solved this little aggavating problem. You
must have missed it. I rigged a 4 inch. wide angle mirror on top of
the winch post so that I could see it from the truck. Then just
watched in the mirror as I backed up to the trailer hitch. When the
hitch ball disappears under the trailer hitch, it is usally lined up
perfectly. Sometimes it takes a little adjusting, but after a few
practice runs, I got to where I hit it 90% of the time.


Interesting idea, thanks.
