I'd appreciate any advice from others who tow with a Durango.
Previously I towed with a Safari van and the height of the Durango is
about 8" higher. The drawbar that came with my Reese 350 Mini is WAY
too short for this. So far the only drawbars I've located are
Draw-Tite and I'm being told the hole spacing is different & won't
work.
Anyone else already solved this?

When I switched from a Dodge Caravan to a Chevy Trailblazer, the "L"
shaped bar that fits into the receiver needed to be replaced. I found
a longer one at U-Haul. Camping World and other RV places should have
one also...

I've also seen them at Wal-Mart.

Here is a possible source for ball mounts.

Found Reese components at hitchfinder.com for about half what the
local dealers wanted--and they would have needed to order it anyway.

Sounds like you need p/n 54985 from http://www.reeseproducts.com/index.htm
I was installing a WDH on my Envoy and found that the drop needs to be
ridiculously large for my pop-up (like 10") My other option was to move the
axles under the springs.
