    I am not familiar with Nitro trailers but most trailers have a sticker that has information about the trailer on them such as wheel/tire size and suggested trailer coupler height. As a guess I bet it is 18.5" plus or minus 1" so 17.5"-19.5".

    Tough measurement to get when it is hard to find a totally level surface. The showroom of a dealership may be the best option.

    Every truck will be different. Amount of sag when u put the weight on the truck matters.

    Get a ball hitch that when the trailer is loaded onto your truck, the tops of the tandem tires are about at the same height in regard to the top of the trailer fenders.
