About 60 years ago I discovered some magic stuff that greatly reduces the binding on metal to metal contacts of all kinds. That would be the first thing I would try.

If there is pressure on it either sideways or fore and aft then I have to jump on the bumper of my pickup to get it to release.

Yup.
But they are usually used on vehicles and trailers that don’t need weight redistribution or sway control.
You would have to build a WD hitch with a flat plate to bolt the hook to. Then modify the trailer to attach the round eye. You could put some rubber “chucking absorbers” in while you are at it.

One I see frequently on the craigslist is various spellings of pindel, pendel etc hitch vs the proper spelling pintel hitch.
Or is it a “pintle hook” ?
Anyhoo it’s the Best one ever - back in, smash into the trailer, wind the jack down, close the hook, pin it,done.
Wish all heavy trailers had them..,
Would it work with WDH? Or sway control?
