  • Weight Distribution System Recommendation for a Rockwood Mini Lite 23.7 Trailer
    Your best option is going to be the Reese Strait Line part # RP66084 as it has a tongue weight range of 600-1,200 lbs which would be perfect for your tongue weight of 725 lbs. The sway control on this system is the only style on the market that actively works to prevent sway before it starts. The other very popular option is the Equalizer WD system part # EQ37101ET which would also work great with 725 lbs of tongue weight but instead uses 4 point of friction for sway control. Some people...

  • Is There An Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System For A Truck With 6 Inch Lift
    Yes, if you have a lifted truck then you would want to purchase the weight distribution system and shank separately as this will then allow you to obtain a shank that has the correct amount of drop for your truck without having to purchase an extra one. For starters, you will need the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System part # EQ37101ET and then you can obtain one of the following: Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank - part # EQ90-02-4200 (4" Drop) Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution...

  • How Do I Know What Drop Is Needed For My Lifted Ford F-250 With Bigger Tires?
    The Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control - Round - 10,000 lbs GTW, 1,000 lbs TW # FA94-00-1061, has a shank that will drop 1-5/8 inches from top of hitch receiver opening, so if you measure from the ground to the top of that inside receiver opening and then subtract the height to keep your trailer level, you will know what drop is needed from your weight distribution system shank. For a Fasway system, I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank - 12" Long - 10" Rise,...

  • Recommendation For Reducing Rear End Sag On Lifted 2017 Ram 1500 When Towing a Travel Trailer
    The best way to help reduce sag when towing your travel trailer with your 2017 Ram 1500 Bighorn having a lift is with a weight distribution hitch. Personally I fee the Equal-i-zer hitch systems are the best option as they are made in the USA and have a reputation as being one of the best available. You do need to select the correct system based on the weight of your trailer. 200-600lbs Tongue Weight, Trailer Up to 6,000lbs # EQ37060ET 600-1,000lbs Tongue Weight, Trailer Up to 10,000lbs...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch System for a 2010 Forest River Salem 36BHBS Travel Trailer
    I recommend using the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37120ET with your 2010 Forest River Salem 36BHBS. This particular system is rated for a trailer up to 12,000lbs with a tongue weight of 800-1,200lbs and has a maximum drop of 3". Your Salem will have left the factory with 720lbs of tongue weight and a maximum GVWR of 10,880lbs. Once the dealer filled the propane tanks with 60lbs of propane and installed a 50lb battery on the tongue this will put you at 830lbs before you add...

  • Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Hitch For 2019 Yukon Denali XL Towing 34 Foot Forest River Flagstaff
    I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution # EQ37101ET for your 2019 GMC Yukon XL Denali hauling a Forest River Flagstaff weighing 8,300lbs with 830lbs of tongue weight. This hitch is rated for a trailer up to 10,000lbs with a tongue weight of 600-1,000lbs. It does not include a shank so you will be able to find a shank with the correct amount of drop from the list below. 1/4" to 4" of Drop # EQ90-02-4200 2-1/4" to 6" of Drop # EQ90-02-4300 5-1/4" to 9" of Drop # EQ90-02-4400 8-1/4"...

  • Trailer Hitch For Towing a 3,500LB Camper With a 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The Curt Ball Mount # D-28 is going to be the closest ball mount we have to what you are looking for. This mount is 14-1/4" from center of hitch pin to center of 1" hitch ball hole. It has a 6" drop but with the addition of the 2-5/16" Curt RockerBall # C82KR it has a raised base so you will end up with a 4.5" drop. This RockerBall will help to absorb shock from the trailer and give you a better ride. With the light suspension on your 2013 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited being designed...

  • Recommended Shank With More Drop for Reese Weight Distribution System
    The great thing about weight distribution shanks is that for the most part they are cross-compatible therefore you can mix and match brands. The Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank part # EQ90-02-4300 offers up to 6" of drop and there should be no issues using this with a Reese weight distribution system. I have attached a full list of options below.

  • Is The Fastway WDS Shank FA92-02-4214 The Same As The Equal-izer EQ90-02-4300
    Fastway is made by the same company as Equal-i-zer; The Fastway brand is an entry level company and the Equal-i-zer is the higher line. So the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4300 is essentially the same as the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank # FA92-02-4214.

  • Adding Rise to a Reese Round Bar Weight Distribution Hitch
    I recommend adding a shank with a taller rise. The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank item # EQ90-02-4300 has a 10 inch rise. This shank has a 600 to 1,400 lbs tongue weight and is compatible with Reese weight distribution systems.

  • Shank Recommendation for Equal-i-Zer Weight Distribution for Additional Drop
    Yes there are weight distribution shanks that give you the additional drop you'll need so that your trailer can be towed level. Since you most likely have the # EQ90-02-4500 which is what comes with the Equal-i-Zer kits the shank we offer that would give you a few more inches of drop would be the part # EQ90-02-4300 and you'd be set.

  • How Level Does Trailer Need To Be Using Weight Distribution
    It's really going to depend on how far out of level you are. If you're within an inch or two of level, especially if it's nose-high, you'll be just fine. Turning off the auto-leveling system is not a bad ideal, if it keeps the rear of the vehicle at the correct ride height so the trailer tows level, or nearly level. Keep in mind-when you tow, you'll likely have cargo in the rear of your Yukon, which would likely cause the rear to squat a bit more than it is now. This will likely put the...

  • Equal-i-zer or Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution Hitch For Towing a 30 Foot House Boat
    Both weight distribution systems are top of the line systems that have great sway control. I would lean towards the Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # RP66084 due to its Cam System that does a great job of preventing sway from ever starting, and keeping your trailer straight over the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution w/ 4-Point Sway Control # EQ37121ET which relies on metal on metal friction to prevent sway and keep your trailer straight. Honestly both systems...

  • Weight Distribution System Recommendation for Trailer Weighing 9,000 lb
    The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use. Your tongue weight would most likely...

  • Trailer Still Sways with Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System on a 2018 Ford F-150
    Installing an anti-sway bar on your 2018 Ford F-150 is not going to do much of anything for trailer sway as trailer sway starts on the trailer, not the truck. In order to hammer down what is causing the trailer to sway I first need to know which Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System you have. You should be using part # EQ37100ET which is rated for 600 lbs - 1,000 lbs. If you are not then that could very well be part of the problem as there won't be enough tension on the spring bars to...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Shank for Taller Truck
    You don't need to purchase another hitch, but you will need to get a longer weight distribution shank for your system. I recommend the Curt Weight Distribution Shank # C17124 which will allow up to a 9 inch drop. Another option for your Equal-I-zer system is the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4300 for slightly less drop. You can utilize other brand weight distribution shanks as they are almost all made with the same 3/8 inch hole diameter and 1-1/4 inch center on center measurement...

  • How to Obtain the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System with a Longer Shank
    The best option for you to use the Equal-i-zer 1,000 LB Weight Distribution System on your lifted 2004 Ford Excursion is to purchase the system without the shank using part # EQ37101ET and then choose the correct shank for you which should be the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank part # EQ90-02-4300 as it offers up to a 6" drop. They don't offer this system already packaged with this shank so this will be your best option. I have attached a review video for you as well.

  • Recommendation For Weight Distribution With Sway Control For 28 Foot Enclosed Trailer
    In order to get the right Weight Distribution (WD) system for your towing setup, you will need to know your actual Tongue Weight (TW) when fully loaded and ready to tow. You will also need to include any weight from behind the rear axle of your tow vehicle. As you determine this weight, keep in mind that the TW is 10% to 15% of the total loaded weight of your trailer. A great tool to help with determining your tongue weight is the etrailer Trailer Tongue Weight Scale, Item # e99044. After...

  • How To Measure Trailer Frame Rail To Confirm Fit Of Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System
    The maximum frame height mentioned for the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution w/ 4-Point Sway Control # EQ37061ET is the actual size of the trailer's frame rails and not the ground clearance. You will need to measure your trailer's frame as the Equal-i-zer will not be able to bolt to your trailer if it's frame rails are larger than 6" tall. I included a diagram showing the measurement mentioned. The Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4300 will be great at ensuring that you have enough...

  • Weight Distribution Shank Needed For a 6" Drop With a Fastway E2 Trunnion Weight Distribution Hitch
    To level your trailer using the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0450 you will need to replace the shank that comes with the hitch system with the Shank # EQ90-02-4300. This shank is capable of a 6" drop while the shank that comes with the hitch will only give you up to a 2" drop. You will need a 2" Hitch Ball # 40038 to match your coupler.

  • The Best Weight Distribution System For A GTW of 9,000-10,000 Pounds

I have attached a help article on how to properly measure the tongue weight of your trailer. To ensure a proper reading, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Tongue Weight Scale part # e99044. This will allow you to measure the exact tongue weight of your trailer with little to no room for...
