How much force does it take to compress the trailer tongue. My estimate was about 75 pounds. Does this seem about right?

I would guess that depends on the weight of the trailer. Mine is a two axle one with a max weight of around 3,500#. I would imagine that my damper requires more force to collapse than one in a trailer for a 1-26. I tried to compress my tow bar by hand and couldn't.
Only if I have to do a 'panic stomp' on the brake do I feel the bump in the rear. The three grease fittings get a few shots every year and that seems to be all required to keep it happy.
