More Information and Pricing
Strait-Line Hitch 600 is a combination of the Reese trunnion style weight distribution system (66020) and the new Dual Cam High-Performance Sway Control (26002).

The Strait-Line Hitch was given this name as its pro-active design literally forces the trailer to stay in a straight line behind the tow vehicle. Sway is controlled by the Dual Cam High-Performance System. The stronger the sway force, the more the Dual Cam System works to stop it.

The Strait-Line Hitch combines weight distributing with the best proven pro-active sway control system available in a newly-designed, easy to install kit.

• 66020: Designed for Tongue Weights Between 200 - 600 lbs. / Maximum Trailer Weight 12,000 lbs.
• Simple installation and adjustment
• Fully automatic and self-centering
• Hooking up spring bars automatically hooks up sway control
• Reduced Noise
• No U-bolts to conflict with bottle racks or other A-frame mounted items
• Specific attachment reference points provided
• Note: Weight Distributing Shank and Trailer Hitch Ball are sold separately. Hitch ball requires 1-1/4" shank to maximize towing capacity.

Six points of friction control trailer sway. Four points of steel on steel friction are found in the weight distribution head while the two most important points of friction are found along the weight distribution spring bars. The spring bars are attached to the trailer frame with a hanger system that provides a platform for the spring bar to rest on. These large platforms are composed of an automotive friction material (as found in car brakes) which creates 10 times the amount of friction force as compared to steel on steel friction. When installed properly, the spring bars are constantly exerting force down on to the these platforms (This downward force is what distributes the weight). When the trailer comes out of a straight line for turns etc., the spring bars slide along the top of the large friction pad. Turns exert enough force to slide the spring bars over the friction pad, however, gusts of wind will have a much harder time. This system is topped in sway performance by only the Strait-Line System (66074).

Features:

6-points of friction to control trailer sway

• 4 steel on steel points in the weight distribution head
• 2 large friction pads hang from trailer frame

Automotive friction material provides consistent friction in all weather conditions

Large friction pads make full contact with the spring bars which translates into a longer life and more consistent performance

Serrated Washers make it easy to dial in the set-up of the weight distribution system

• Serrated washers help control the tilt or angle of the weight distribution head. Other styles of weight distribution use harder to access washers.

Raised hitch ball platform eliminates the need the hitch balls with raised shanks

No Drill clamp on brackets can be installed with in a wide range to accompany gas bottles, batteries, tool boxes etc. on the trailer tongue.

Specs:

Designed for Tongue Weights Between 600- 1,100 lbs.

Maximum Towing Weight: 11,000 lbs.

Hangers with friction pads clamp on to trailer frame without any drilling

• Hangers can be adjusted from 24" to 32" back from the center of the ball along the trailer frame.
• Adjustments can vary by weight rating

Maximum trailer frame height: 6" tall

Maximum trailer frame width: 2" wide

• If your trailer frame is less than 2" wide, spacers will need to be welded into place

Works well on trailers with hydraulic (surge) brake actuators

5 year limited warranty

Included Shank (# 63970) allows for a 1-1/4" Drop or a 6" Rise. Measures 13" long from pin hole to ball hole, 8" from pin hole to back of upright bar.

• Other weight distribution shanks with different drops, rises and lengths are available.

Note: Trailer Hitch Ball requires 1-1/4" Shank to maximize towing capacity.

Compared to the Competition: If you are looking at the competition, remember this, 6 points of sway control, large automotive friction material pads which mean 10 times more friction than steel on steel, easy to adjust serrated washers control the tilt of the ball platform, and spring bars with more flex (means a smoother ride, better weight distribution performance on uneven roads and less wear and tear on the vehicle.).

Reese SC Trunnion Weight Distribution Kit with Sway Control 1,200 lbs. TW / 12,000 lbs. GTW

Six points of friction control trailer sway. Four points of steel on steel friction are found in the weight distribution head while the two most important points of friction are found along the weight distribution spring bars. The tapered spring bars are attached to the trailer frame with a hanger system that provides a platform for the spring bar to rest on. These large platforms are composed of an automotive friction material (as found in car brakes) which creates 10 times the amount of friction force as compared to steel on steel friction. When installed properly, the spring bars are constantly exerting force down on to the these platforms (this downward force is what distributes the weight). When the trailer comes out of a straight line for turns etc., the spring bars slide along the top of the large friction pad. Turns exert enough force to slide the spring bars over the friction pad, however, gusts of wind will have a much harder time.

This system is the same as the Pro Series SC, however it utilizes tapered spring bars. Tapered bars provide superior weight distribution performance over uneven roads and in various weather conditions while also putting less strain on the vehicle.

Features:

• 6-points of friction to control trailer sway
  • 4 steel on steel points in the weight distribution head
  • 2 large friction pads hang from trailer frame
• Tapered bars provide superior weight distribution on uneven roads and in many different weather conditions
• Lift handle accessory included to reduce the amount of lifting required by the trailer jack when preloading the weight distribution system
• Automotive friction material provides consistent friction in all weather conditions
• Large friction pads make full contact with the spring bars which translates into a longer life and more consistent performance
• Serrated washers make it easy to dial in the set-up of the weight distribution system
  • Serrated washers help control the tilt or angle of the weight distribution head
• Raised hitch ball platform eliminates the need for hitch balls with raised shanks
• No drill clamp on brackets can be installed within a wide range to accompany gas bottles, batteries, tool boxes etc. on the trailer tongue

Specs:

• Designed for a tongue weight between 600 lbs. - 1,200 lbs.
• Maximum Towing Weight: 12,000 lbs.
• Hangers with friction pads clamp on to trailer frame without any drilling
  • Hangers can be adjusted from 24" to 30" back from the center of the ball along the trailer frame
  • Adjustments can vary by weight rating
• Works well on trailers with hydraulic (surge) brake actuators
• Made in the USA
• Limited lifetime warranty

Note: Weight Distribution Shank and Trailer Hitch Ball are sold separately. Hitch ball requires 1-1/4" shank to maximize towing capacity.

The first consideration in determining the correct weight distribution system is the tongue weight of your fully loaded trailer. You should also consider the gross towing weight of your fully loaded trailer. These weight distribution systems are intended for use with medium travel trailers, heavy boat trailers, or heavy horse trailers. Typical tongue weight of up to 800 lbs. and gross towing weight of 10,000 - 12,000 lbs. We have put together some in depth information about weight distribution systems and how they work, visit our page about weight distribution if you would like to know more.
