ez lift bars for towing.

Does anyone know if it is necessary to use the ez lift bars for towing or is it ok to tow straight from the ball hitch?

Partially depends on your tow vehicle. I can't tow my Tradewind on the ball with the Tahoe because the hitch shank makes grooves in the pavement.
If you have a F450 it's a different answer.

Thank you. I have a 2500 HD diesel. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. Thanks again.

I tow our 1971 Tradewind w/o a WD hitch w/ our F250. It all depends on the tongue weight and what your vehicle will handle. I would try to keep the ball as close to the rear axle of the TV as possible; there's no point in giving the trailer extra leverage.
