My 50 is the old style I think like yours Canada. Mine does not hit the cross member or anything else. It will sway just a bit under the truck using the J-Hook. I thought they were designed that way. The tire would hit the slide before it hits the bottom of the crossmember? I could be wrong. I noticed that you would have to add spacers or do something extra to get it that far up. I don't want mine to touch because that means scraping the paint. The way it is built, it isnt going anywhere in any case. Very sturdy design.
I didn't like the sway, so I decided to incorporate the system into my trailer hitch system. Now its solid as a rock.
