Just bought my TV and will be ordering a 400 next month. Anyone else have this combo? I'd like to know what hitch ball I should purchase. The Z71 trim has a raised off road suspension but I'm expecting a 2" drop once the 400 is attached. I thank you for any suggestions in advance.

    My 400 is 18" to the top of the ball in the level position. I set my SUV hitch at 19" to the top of the ball and the trailer is level when coupled to the vehicle.

    @ecyfoto, great choice of TV. I think you will love it. 
    My setup is 2018 Chevy Colorado Z71DuraMax pulling a 2018 T@B 320S Boondock.
     Find out the hitch height of your 400 to Top Of Ball? For my Boondock the TOB height is 22" so I used a 1" rise ball mount to get to TOB = 22".

    Because my tailgate would hit the T@B tongue jack before it was full open I went with a Class 4 2" drop/1" rise with a 9-3/8" length Ball Mount. A Class 3 Ball mount only typically has a 8-1/4" length, center of Pin to center of ball. I hope this helps a little.

    Spring is only about 14 weeks away!

    I would personally buy an Anderson aluminum adjustable height draw bar!
