It is improved by inflating the tires high, but I don't want to go over the recommendations. Inflating the tires doesn't fix the problem, but only makes it better. The hitch is the proper size and rating, too. Does anyone have any suggestions I haven't had this problem with any other trailer? Thanks, Dennis Benson
