Trailer Models
LowRider vs HighRider / Measuring Trailer Height
Your height model for your SPACE Trailer should be determined by the height of the hitch on your tow vehicle. There is no difference in clearance between the LowRider and the HighRider, as the axle remains at the same height for both.
What is the HighRider XL model?
The HighRider XL SPACE Trailer is our newest model (now available). It has the same height specs as the HighRider ST.
WHY?
It is important that the trailer remains level when on flat ground. If the trailer is not parallel with the ground, it can affect handling, braking, and tire wear. It is also vital to load weight in your trailer safely, for that and more do your safety research before driving your trailer. This is why we have multiple trailer heights to accommodate a larger array of vehicles, especially those small ones.
Step 1 - Before you Start:
You will need a measuring tape or a ruler, and a level surface to park your vehicle on. The SPACE Trailer requires a Class I (or above) 2β Ball Hitch.
Step 2 - Find your target Coupler Height
If you have a ball hitch already:
Measure the distance from the ground to base of your ball hitch (orange). This is your target height to match your new SPACE Trailer to. Move to step 3.
If you DO NOT have a ball hitch:
You will need to purchase a 2β ball hitch that is Class I or above for your receiver.
A. Measure the distance from the top of the receiver tube to the ground. (Red)
B. Pick your trailer model below (step 3) and find itβs tongue/coupler height. (Green)
C. Receiver Tube Height - Trailer tongue/coupler Height = The drop for the hitch you need to purchase.Β
E.G: 21in Reciever Tube - 19in Tongue Height (Highrider ST) = 2in Drop ball hitch.
Step 3 - Match your Trailer
Pick the SPACE Trailer below build that matches your target height.Β
Note: If itβs not a perfect match It is better to err on the side of having the trailer nose down. If it is more than a couple of inches of difference you may need to get a ball hitch with a different drop height.Β
