Today we're going to be taking a look at the replacement snap up lever for the equalizer weight distribution systems. You can use this replacement hook and handle combination to make hooking up your equalizer weight distribution system much easier. It's simply replaces the snap up handle assembly that was included with your equalizer weight distribution system, and it eases hook up by providing improved leverage when lifting the spring bars into place on the sway control brackets. You'll notice that it has a really nice grip design, so it's very easy to handle and control and operate. It is a two piece design. And the two pieces simply just thread together. So, it's easy to break down, like if you're putting it in a storage compartment.
You can unthread it and it just makes for compact storage option. Then when you're ready to use it, you just thread the two pieces together, and it's a really nice durable design. It's made from a steel construction. Has protective finishing over it, so that way you don't have to worry about rust and corrosion with this unit. It's made and the U.S.A. When you're ready to use it, this area right here, cradles the spring bar of your weight distribution system and then the hook engages the hole on the sway control brackets.
Then all you have to do, is use the handle as leverage. You lift it up, and you're bar will move into place on the sway control brackets. That's going to do it for today's look at the replacement snap up lever for the equalizer weight distribution systems.

Use this replacement hook-and-handle combination to make hooking up your Equal-i-zer weight-distribution system easier.
I purchased a used equalizer hitch that the seller couldn’t find the lever. This replacement makes it much easier to install the bars
David O - 09/27/2021etrailer.com always seems to have what I need. On this order I need an item ASAP Customer Service Representative Paula S. Found my item, had it shipped that afternoon with expedited delivery. Arrived the next day. Paula S also sent follow up emails to confirm it was shipped and tracking information It would be hard to find better service than etrailer.com Thank you Paula S.
Lost my original, this was was exactly the same tool.
thestuntboy - 08/09/2021Parts arrived in original condition as requested. Thanks
The breakdown handle is perfect and the rubber pads are the perfect size for my storage space.
Quick process and quick shipping. Thank s.
Your phone system needs some work for sure.I called one day and never back.I had to call back twice to get to talk to someone and thank you Joshfor taking my call
Solid replacement for the original.
Item was delivered as promised. Exactly as described and ready to use. I will be going back to etrailer for other RV needs .thanks
I like it, but in most cases it is not necessary. With a power hitch, it is easy enough to get the swing arms onto the trailer bracket without help, but it is a nice thing to have if you find yourself in a position where you can't jack the tongue high enough. Must buy item if you have a manual jack on your trailer.
I recently bought a used Equalizer hitch for towing our travel trailer. Being used, there was no tool like this to lift the sway bars up to where they provide friction to resist sway. Without this, it was a matter of setting the anti-sway bars while the tongue was still high, but the main hitch must be adjusted, making it almost impossible to set the friction bars without this tool.
I bought my equalizer hitch second hand and it didn't come with this lever. I got along fine for a few years without it but for the price I'm glad I bought this and wish I had sooner. It saves my back and makes hitching up that much more enjoyable.
Arrived in a timely manner, and was exactly what I expected . I will try not to leave this one on the bumper of the truck!
This handle is better than the original that came with my hitch. A great product at a great price and delivery was faster than expected. Thank you etrailer.com, I now have you saved in my web browser favorites.
Kevin - 03/18/2018My replacement spring bars, sway control brackets, and snap up lever arrived on time and well packaged. All items were complete and in perfect order. They were also the cheapest I found anywhere online or in stores. Very satisfied.
I had misplaced the original Snap-up bar and had to find a replacement. Customer service was extremely responsive and I received the part even before the expected delivery date. I haven't used the replacement bar yet, but noticed the square shape of the handle doesn't feel as comfortable as the original one which had a round handle. I'm sure it will do the trick, but a more ergonomically correct handle would be nice. I ended up wrapping the handle in (bright color) tape not only to make the grip more comfortable, but also to make it easier to spot once put on the ground.
works better than the one that came with my equalizing hitch the handle is a little longer so it has more leverage making it easier to engage the bars.very happy with this item. also the two piece design makes it easier to store.
Not as described but actually looks better, the handle screws onto the tool, I drilled a small hole and put a screw to hold it steady. Looks better then the original that came with the hitch. And really quick shipping, thanks
Patrick B - 12/12/2013Ordered the replacement snap-up lever for my equalizer hitch which I had lost. etrailer did a great job getting it to me for a reasonable price and fair shipping costs. This lever is a must if you have an equalizer hitch and makes hooking up a breeze.
We lost our Snap up Lever when we accidentally left the storage door open while pulling our Winnebago. I thought it would be difficult to order another one since I didn't know what it was called, however when I typed in wrenches for RV hitches the etrailer.com site came up and there it was. Very easy to navigate the payment and the site in general. Our Snap up Lever was delivered in a timely manner and we are very satisified.
This is better built with a quality grip that allows for more leverage when hooking up the equalizer bars on my trailer. I am almost glad I lost the original that came with my hitch.
I purchased the step up trailer hitch assist bar after losing mine at a campground. The bar ended up being better quality than the original one I had, which had come with my trailer hitch. It also unscrews and is easy to store in my travel trailer where the other one was not. All in all, great product at a great price.
This lever is far better than the one that originally came with my Equal-i-zer hitch. The design is much more user friendly than the narrow, flat, square cornered original, it’s very comfortable in your hand. The prices at etrailer are the lowest to be found and their shipping was exceptionally fast. etrailer’s customer service is top notch as they are knowledgeable, friendly and go out of their way to help answer all of your questions (even called the product manufacturer while I was on the line to insure that the information was current and accurate).
Great product! much better than the original that came with the hitch as this one has a nice rubber handle and is a little longer than the original. i felt bad that i lost the original, but was very happy that i found this wonderful replacement
I left my snap-up lever for my weight equalizer on the bumper like so many have done and drove off. A service man from Camping World gave me the web site of etrailer.com They could not have ship it out quicker and I got it within a few days. I almost sent it back because I expected this long bar package. The original was a solid bar. The new one comes in two parts and looks sturdy and just fine...wasn't expecting a 12 x 12 box. Great job guys! Joel
