Instinct propane cover blocked by hitch saddles
So, after having my equalizer hitch set up on our instinct 28rbds, the hitch saddles on the tongue prevent you from sliding the cover far enough forward so that the top pins come out and the cover can be removed. The only way I can get the cover off now is to loosen the saddles and slide them forward. Then I can take the cover off. The only ways that I can think of to fix this is to 1) dremel out slots so that the cover will clear the saddles or 2) try and source some sort of spring loaded pins to replace the stationary pins that secure the top of the cover - and have the actuated by a cable or lever located at the bottom of the cover - depressing the pins would allow it to be freed at the top so that it could be removed I think. I like the spring loaded pin idea better.
But, I was thinking that as common as the equalizer hitch is that someone must have encountered this problem and remedied it. Any ideas? Here’s the best pictures I have on my phone showing the problem.
