Hitching Rods/Trailer Alignment Kits
Hooking up is part of this thread and I just discovered (because I think they are new) a couple of sources of "hitching rods" - Camping World has then under this name and Harbor Freight has them with a more formal name of Trailer Alignment Kit. They are basically two expandable rods (like car radio antennas) with magnets on one end. Place one on the hitch and one on the ball. Using your rear view mirror, line them up and when the hitch pushes the one off the ball, you are ready to hook up! I came real close to perfect on my first attempt.
Hope this helps.
