Video Transcript for Review of Blue Ox Replacement 2000 lbs TW SwayPro Spring Bars - BXW4014
Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at these Blue Ox replacement spring bars for your SwayPro weight distribution system. Now this kit is going to include the two spring bars, lift chains, and necessary hardware needed to replace your SwayPro spring bars. Now, one of the really nice things about the SwayPro system is that you can simply switch out your spring bars, so if you get a lighter trailer or a heavier trailer make sure that your ride is gonna be nice and smooth. You can simply switch out the spring bars so that it's got the right weight capacity for you, rather than having to get a whole new system. So we do have lots of different spring bar sets that will range from tongue weight of 200 pounds up to the tongue weight of 2000 pounds.
So you just need to make sure that you're getting the right set for your setup's tongue weight. The bars do all look very similar. They are going to have slight thickness differences, but the easiest way to tell which bar set you have, they use a dot system. So the 350 pound bars.. are not gonna have a dot, your 550 pound max tongue weight is gonna have one dot, like we have here, so these are our 550 pound max tongue weight, but then on that list there you can see those dots on the right side, so it goes up to five dots for your 2000 pound tongue weight rating.
So just make sure you're getting the right one for your setup so that it's not gonna be too rigid, and it's going to engage properly for you. All these sets are going to work with both your older locking pin style pivot tubes, so they've got the divot there on the top, so your locking pin will grab onto that to secure these into your head unit. And they are also going to work with your newer style through pin style locking tube so that you can get that pin passed all the way through there to secure that, so whether you have the older style or the newer, this will work great for you. These are made here in the USA, so you can trust they're made to the high quality standards we've come to know and trust for products that are made here in the U.S, but more than that, because they are a Blue Ox product, you can trust the are gonna fit right into your SwayPro system, and you're not gonna have any issues with it, it's just going to accommodate for either replacing spring bars that you already have, or adjusting your setup for that different tongue weight. So that completes our look for today again I'm Michael with etrailer.com.
Thanks for watching..

This kit includes everything you need to replace your SwayPro's spring bars. Use these bars to change your system to one with a tongue weight rating of 1,500 lbs to 2,000 lbs.by: Steve 06/07/2023
Delivered fast and at the best price I could find. Originally bought Sway Pro with 1,500lb spring bars believing I would be good with an 1,080lb dry tongue weight. Turns out 1,500lb was not enough to level truck once trailer was loaded full of all the stuff I "need" to bring camping. I do think the bars broke in because the truck and trailer were level when I first started using the Sway Pro. After a couple thousand miles towing, I noticed the truck now sat nose high and the rearend and front of the trailer were low with the tension maxed out on the 11th chain link. I will also point out the truck only has 13,000 miles on it so it could be a combination of the truck's suspension breaking in as well. Pretty sure these 2,000lb bars will put me back to level. Tow vehicle is an F250.

In combination with the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Hitch, these bars have done an excellent job leveling and controlling sway on our OutDoors RV 24KTS.
Our worst case scenario for towing is with two golf cart batteries, plus two 30 lb propane tanks on the tongue, our front storage area loaded with gear, and without water in the tanks (80 gallons of water storage aft of the axles). Measured tongue weight is 1450 lbs in that condition. While not common, we do occasionally tow without water. Going to the heavier spring bars gives us the security of knowing we won't exceed the 1500 lb bars that came with the original setup.
So far we've logged over 6000 miles on the unit from AZ to MT in the southwest. The hitch has done great even in the high cross winds of WY and MT.

Purchased new travel trailer and Blue Ox SwayPro weight distribution came free with TT. Dealer stated that 1,000 to 1,500 lb. Spring Bars were sufficient for 1,600 lb tongue weight of TT. Called Blue Ox to verify, they told me by no means should I be using 4 dot (1,000-1,500) Spring Bars. So , I searched on line for 5 dot (1,500 - 2,000) Spring Bars and found best price for them on etrailer.com! Arrived as decribed.

First use today to take trailer to repair facility. Plan on weighing the complete rig on a Cat Scale after repair and on the way home. Measurements look good after installation and ride and control seemed better. Have made big changes in my hitch since the new trailer and first weighing was awful due to poor set up that is in process of correction.
by: Colleen 05/10/2021
Excellent, fast, on time delivered once again from etrailer. Checked with Blue Ox (stock unavailable) and etrailer had these in stock and at a more affordable price. We upgraded from the 1500lb bars that were selected by our dealer with our trailer. The additional capacity is an increased feeling of control.
We will continue to research the reviews and look into this trusted source on our next item/items.

I made this purchase due to a need for an upgrade in hitch weight. I called in to make the purchase and etrailer helped in every aspect. The product was packaged and shipped the same day and was received in 3 days, a day earlier than estimated. The item was well packaged and had no damage. I will continue to be a customer of etrailer due to their customer service and timely deliveries.

See what our Experts say about this Blue Ox Accessories and Parts
- Can Blue Ox Sway Pro Weight Distribution System Be Upgraded By Using Higher Rated Spring BarsYou can indeed upgrade to the 2000 lb rated spring bars, part # BXW4014. The Sway Pro systems from the highest to the lowest rated all use the same weight distribution head. To change the weight rating of the system, you'd simply swap out the spring bars. I've confirmed this with Blue Ox for you.
view full answer... - Correct Blue Ox Sway Pro Weight Distribution SystemWhen connecting a weight distribution system you're not always going to be able to get completely back to unloaded stock height. The goal is to try and get as close as you can but it's not always realistic and your numbers aren't too far off so that's not the part I would focus on. Instead I would pay closer attention to making sure the bars you're using are rated for the tongue weight and I think this might be where your issue is. When you weigh your trailer with the ATVs loaded the...
view full answer... - Which Blue Ox Spring Bars For Tongue Weight Right Under 1,500 lbsIf you are under 1,500 lbs of tongue weight you'll be best served going with the lighter rated # BXW4008. Being on the high end of a tongue weight range is much better than being too low for a system's tongue weight range as that would give you a very harsh ride quality.
view full answer... - How to Determine Spring Bar Weight Rating Needed for my Blue Ox Sway Pro System?There is a great way to figure this out. Basically you just want to determine your tongue weight and add that to whatever cargo you will have behind the rear axle. You then use this weight to determine which spring bars are right for your situation. You should choose a bar that has your tongue weight in the middle of its range. For example if your tongue weight is 890 lbs then I recommend Replacement Spring Bars for Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System - 1,000 lbs TW part # BXW4007...

When using a weight distribution system it's safer to be as close as possible to the proper tongue weight as possible, going way under or way higher could result in a poor ride or a dangerous ride. The Blue...

The Sway Pro systems from the highest to the lowest rated all use the same weight distribution head. To change the weight rating of the system, you'd simply swap out the spring bars. These spring bars have a tongue weight rating of 1,500 lbs to 2,000 lbs.
view full answer... - Blue Ox Weight Distribution Spring Bars for Jayco 28BHSBased on the weight of the trailer you mentioned you'd need the higher rated spring bars # BXW4007 which has a tongue weight rating of 750 lbs - 1,000 lbs. For a tongue weight scale we have the part # e99044 .
view full answer... - How to Determine the Correct Replacement Springs Bars for a Blue Ox Weight Distribution SystemThe Replacement Spring Bars for Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System part # BXW4008 are best suited for a towing setup with a total tongue weight (TTW) between 1,000 and 1,500 lbs. The TTW is calculated by adding the loaded ready to tow tongue weight of the trailer by an weight stored behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. As long as these two things do not exceed 1,500 lbs then the above spring bars will work well for you. However, if the TTW of your towing setup exceeds 1,500...

With Blue Ox, there is a 5 dimple system: No dimples means it is rated for up to 350 lbs total tongue weight. One dimple means it is rated for up to 550 lbs. Two dimples indicates up to 750 lbs.

- Will Replacement Spring Bars for Blue Ox SwayPro # BXW4005 Fit Older Weight Distribution HitchI spoke to my contact at Blue Ox, he confirmed that the Replacement Spring Bars for Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System - 550 lbs TW # BXW4005 will be compatible with the old style head and will work with the style that had the locking pin. If you need heavier spring bars, we have the Replacement Spring Bars for Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System - 750 lbs TW # BXW4006, 1,000 lbs TW # BXW4007, 1,500 lbs TW # BXW4008 and 2,000 lbs TW # BXW4014.
view full answer... - Will the Newer Blue Ox SwayPro Spring Bars Work With an Older Blue Ox WDS?The old style bars are not going to be available as Blue Ox has phased them out, and I did speak to Blue Ox and they said that the older hitch heads are different so the new Replacement Spring Bars for Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System # BXW4006 won't work. With that said, you're going to need an entire new system, unfortunately. The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # BXW0750 is a great choice that also comes with the 750-lbs spring bars you were checking...
view full answer... - Selecting The Correct Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribuiton Bars For Trailer Tongue 1,380lbs DryYou will most likely need to go with the 2,000LB Replacement Spring Bars # BXW4014 since your trailer has a dry hitch weight of 1,380lbs. These bars are rated for tongue weights of 1,500-2,000lbs which will be the range you are in when adding propane and batteries to the front of the trailer. A Tongue Weight Scale # e99044 is good to keep on hand to verify the tongue weight when packing your camper to ensure you do not exceed the weight requirements of the bars. We do have the whole Blue...
view full answer... - Solution to Reduce Sag on 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 Towing Trailer With Weight Distribution HitchI'll start out by saying that switching to heavier bars to the # BXW4014 won't be an option and it would seem that if you've got 1500-lbs bars you're well rated for your trailer, which should have a tongue weight of no more than 1300-lbs. You can see if adjusting the trunnion bars up a bit higher/tighter takes some of the weight off that rear axle, but the best solution would be some sort of suspension enhancement. There are some solutions that could be much easier to remove at the end...

The bars will have dimples on them which will tell you what your tongue rating is. Any of the following bars will work for you depending on your tongue weight. No dimples = 200 pounds to 350 pounds # BXW4015 1 dimple = 350 pounds to 550 pounds # BXW4005 2 dimples = 550 pounds to 750 pounds # BXW4006 3 dimples = 750 pounds to 1,000 pounds # BXW4007 4 dimples = 1,000...

- Can Spring Bars On A Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Hitch Be Swapped To Increase Capacity Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution systems like your # BXW1000 all use the same head unit so you'll only have to swap out the spring bars in order to increase the capacity of the hitch. Blue Ox currently has 1,500lb TW # BXW4008 and 2,000lb TW # BXW4014 replacement spring bars available.
view full answer... - Blue Ox Weight Distribution System for 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Towing 10,000 Pound TrailerTo choose the correct weight distribution system you need to know the tongue weight of the loaded and ready to tow trailer, plus the amount of weight that will be loaded in the bed of your 2016 GMC 2500 behind the rear axle. A trailer's tongue weight is usually about 10 to 15 percent of its GTW, so you're likely looking at 1,000 to 1,500 pounds. The best way to determine your tongue weight is to weigh it using a scale like # e99044. Once you have this number add in the weight stored...
view full answer... - Weight Distribution System Needed to Tow a 2016 Sunset Trail 32RI with a 2016 Ford F-150From what I could find online it looks like your 2016 Crossroads Sunset Trail 32Rl has a GVWR of 10,000 lbs. Since the tongue weight (TW) of your loaded trailer should be 10-15% (1,000 lbs - 1,500 lbs for your 10,000 lb trailer) and you also need to add the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of your 2016 Ford F-150 for your weight distribution (WD) system, it sounds like you need a bigger WD system. A great WD system for your application is the Blue Ox SwayPro # BXW1500. This has...
view full answer... - Effect of Swapping Spring Bars on Blue Ox SwayPro Weight DistributionThat is correct, you can swap out the spring bars on the # BXW0350 for higher rated spring bars. The head and the shank have a rating high enough to handle any of the spring bars. Changing the bars will alter the tongue weight range of the system which is what you want to focus on when choosing a system/spring bars. The gross towing weight will be 10x the max tongue weight in the tongue weight range or you could view it as the max tongue weight is 10% of the gross towing weight. For example,...
view full answer... - How to Determine Capacity of a Blue Ox Weight Distribution System?I will be happy to help you. The Blue Ox weight distribution systems like the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control item # BXW1500 all use the same head. The bars are the component that determines the capacity of the system. The Blue Ox has a dimple system on their spring bars. It is near the base of the bar where it goes into the head. I have linked a picture to show you where to look. No dimples means it is rated for up to 350 lbs total tongue weight. One dimple means...
view full answer... - Are Long or Short Torsion Arms Better for a Weight Distribution SystemThe reason long bars on weight distribution (WD) systems, like the Strait-Line # RP66074, are so popular is because that means the clamps for the trailer frame will sit about 30" away from the coupler. Typically this avoids items that sit on the tongue, like propane tanks. Short arms are a great substitute for when things like propane tanks get in the way. There really is no advantage or disadvantage of using long or short arms other than the location of other things on the tongue of your...
view full answer... - Does the 750 lb Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System Come with Spring Bars for Other WeightsThe Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution part # BXW0756 is designed for a trailer with a tongue weight between 550 lbs - 750 lbs. If you have a different tongue weight outside of this range, you'd need to purchase new spring bars for that weight which is the case for almost all weight distribution systems, they don't come with. I have attached these for you below. 2,000 lbs part # BXW4014 1,500 lbs part # BXW4008 1,000 lbs part # BXW4007 750 lbs part # BXW4006 (comes with above) 550 lbs...
view full answer... - Recommended Weight Distribution System for Towing Car Hauler with Alternating LoadsUsing the same weight distribution system with such a drastic difference in the amount of weight you're towing can be an issue. If your load is too heavy for the system then it won't be able to do its job, go too light and it will make your trailer ride rough. The Reese Steadi-Flex you mentioned, part # RP66560, is certainly too heavy when your trailer is on the light side and may not even be enough when fully loaded. Instead I recommend using a system that you can convert based on your...
