Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a towed vehicle including a frame having a front end positioned opposite from a back end, and a left side positioned opposite from a right side. A hitch bar is positioned at the front end of the frame. The towed vehicle also includes a jack stand for supporting the front end of the vehicle above the ground when the hitch bar of the towed vehicle is not coupled to the hitch of a towing vehicle. When aligning the hitch bar with the hitch of the towing vehicle, the position of the hitch bar can be moved leftwardly or rightwardly by selectively pivoting the jack stand relative to the frame with an actuator.
