• said hitch having a pair of opposing end portions;
• said trailer having a pair of opposing front corner portions;
• said resilient webbings respectively connecting said opposing end portions of said hitch with said opposing front corner portions of said trailer;
• and
• a routing member assisting said resilient webbings in applying a restoring moment about said pivot axis;
• said routing member extending laterally from said tongue adjacent to said pivot axis;
