Fastway e2 Hitch L-Bracket Location on 21NE
I'm going to be picking up my E21NE in a few weeks and I'm trying to eliminate any surprises. I purchased my own Fastway e2 hitch instead of buying from Escape. When I talked to Fastway they said the round bar model was sufficient for the size and weight of an Escape 21NE, so that's what I purchased. I have since learned that Escape usually supplies the trunnion bar model. Very similar, just a little more money. Now I have discovered that the L-bracket for the round bar model should be placed at 24"-27" from the coupler, while the trunnion model is supposed to be placed at 27"-30" from the coupler. My question is, can I get the L-brackets onto the frame at the correct distance (24-27")? Is there something in the way that makes this a definite no go?
I am looking for someone with a 21NE and a Fastway hitch to take a picture of the L-bracket location on the trailer frame (both sides) and tell me the distance from the center of the coupler to the center of the L-bracket. The L-bracket is the piece that is clamped to the frame and the hitch bars lift up and onto.
If the 21C has the same arrangement of storage box, batteries, and propane bottles on the front of the trailer, then that will work also.
