ABSTRACT:
A guide device assists the driver of a towing vehicle in properly positioning the hitch ball located on same for connection with the hitch socket of a trailer. A cover is closely fit over the hitch ball to mount a telescoping sight arm thereto. A compressible ball is tightly inserted in the socket to mount a second telescoping sight arm to the trailer hitch. The sight arms provide guides which enable the driver to accurately back a towing vehicle toward the trailer for connection of the cooperating hitch portions.
