Nick,
As for the direct relationship of D and L, I think my problem is semantics. What I was trying to say is D and L are not related inversely. D gets smaller as L gets shorter not larger as L gets shorter.
My REAL problem is that I live in San Diego and am taking delivery of my new 20'SafariSE in Salt Lake City. The Dealer, Ardel Brown, threw an Equalizer hitch into the deal. As anal as I am I wanted to know for myself why they give me a 600# or a 1000# spring arm and more importantly if they are giving me the proper one. I plan to take equation #8 along with me but I was hoping for a seat of the pants answer to the problem. I think 59toaster's sugestion of measuring the rise of the front end of the TV and then using the lightest spring arm that again gets it level is that answer. Do you agree? My other problem is that the 20'Safari is new to the line up this year and I have not found any "this works" posts for it. On top of that you have made it perfectly clear that what works for some one else's 20' Safari may not work for me if the TVs are not the same. Looks like I haven't graduated from Tow 101 yet.
