• Choosing Between A Fastway Weight Distribution System With Round Bars Or Trunnion Bars
  One of the major differences between a round bar system and a Trunnion bar system is if ground clearance is an issue, you may be better off choosing a Trunnion-bar system simply because these bars slide into the weight distribution head instead of inserting into it from the bottom, thus maintaining a more streamline system.The round-style spring bars slide up into the head and are held in place with clips. The round bar on # FA94-00-0600 extends about 2-1/2 inches below the weight distribution...

• Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch System For a 6,000LB Sailboat Trailer With a Straight Tongue

• Comparison of Fastway and Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems for 3,000 Pound Trailer
  Both the Fastway # FA94-00-0600 and the Equal-i-zer # EQ37060ET are rated for 600 pounds tongue weight which once your trailer is loaded and you factor in any weight in the back of your 2016 Chrysler Town and Country that is right where you want to be. A couple of differences to consider, the Fastway does not include a hitch ball, but of course you can purcahse either a 2 inch, # EQ91-00-6080, or 2-5/16 inch, # EQ91-00-6100.

• Recommended Weight Distribution System for 2021 Ford Explorer Towing 2024 GeoPro 19FDS
  Hello Pete; thank you for providing that information. The most important thing when choosing a weight distribution hitch is tongue weight. We know the dry hitch weight of your trailer is 485 lbs and the GVWR is 4,485. Since tongue weight is typically 10-15% of the trailer weight you're looking at a max of roughly 673 lbs. Based on this information I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0800 you were looking at. I really like the Fastway hitch since it is a high quality...

• Recommendation to Reduce Rear Sag on 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler When Towing Trailer
  The Timbren Active Off-Road Bumpstops # TABSJRJK referenced in your question are confirmed to fit your 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Unlimited. These are designed to replace the factory bump stops on your Jeep and will provide a stronger unit that will do a better job of supporting the rear suspension and absorbing energy and cushioning road shock. These should definitely help a bit with the rear sag on your Jeep when hooking up to a trailer, but it's not your best option. When rear sag on a vehicle...

• Recommended Fastway Weight Distribution For 2017 Jayco Jay Flight 195RB Trailer

Based on the specs for your trailer, if you were loaded to capacity you could have a trailer tongue weight of up to 525 lbs, and that...

• Recommendation for Fighting Trailer Sway
  If you are wanting to use a Friction Sway Control Kit, like part # 83660, then all you will need is the Reese Sway-Control Bracket # RP26003 for your 2 inch ball mount. As convenient as the price of a sway control kit is, I highly recommend going with a Weight Distribution (WD) system instead. Not only will it ensure that your towing setup is level, but it will also have an integrated sway control that allows you to back up, unlike the kit. When you choose a WD system you will want to...

This system has built in sway control that will keep your trailer in line with your truck when you're going down the highway and get passed by a semi or make a sudden move.

  Because the top of the receiver opening can have different size collars from hitch to hitch, we measure from the top of the inside opening to make sure it is consistent.

• Recommended Weight Distribution System For 2011 Toyota RAV4 Towing 2500-Lb Trailer
  The best way to find a weight distribution system that is best for you is to first determine the tongue weight of your fully-loaded trailer when it is ready to tow. Then add the weight of any cargo you place behind the rear axle of your towing vehicle. That gives you the total tongue weight to consider. You want that weight to fall near the middle of the range of the weight distribution system you choose. If your total TW is over 400 lbs. I recommend the Equali-i-zer weight distribution,...

• Parts Needed to Tow a 3,900 Pound Trailer with a 2016 Buick Enclave with Factory Tow Package
  In addition to a trailer hitch, such as # 75528, for your 2016 Buick Enclave you will also need a trailer wiring harness, ball mount, and ball. These are the basic components needed for towing. It looks like the Enclave already has a trailer wiring harness so that plus the hitch means we need to look at ball mounts and balls. I recommend an adjustable ball mount such as # C45900 because it is height adjustable from 6 inches drop to 5-1/4 inch rise and it has both a 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch...

• Recommended Trailer Brake Controller and Weight Distribution Hitch For a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  Since your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland has the factory tow package I recommend using the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR which you can connect using the Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # RED77FR. This is a very simple to use proportional brake controller and it only has a small dash mounted control knob so you will not have a large controller on your dash. The Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0800 will help with reduce the amount your rear suspension sags...

• Fastway e2 Weight Distribution for a 16' Aluminum Enclosed Motorcycle Trailer Weighing 4,000LBS
  You will want to use the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0600 for your trailer. This system is rated for a trailer up to 6,000lbs with a tongue weight of 200-600lbs. The e2 # FA94-00-1061 you found is rated for trailers up to 10,000lbs with a tongue weight of 600-1,000lbs which your trailer will not come close to reaching. Having the heavier bars will not allow the system to work properly and could lead to sway or weight distribution issues. You will need either a 2" # EQ91-00-6080...

• Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch For a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Pulling 5,350LB Trailer
  I recommend using the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-1000 for your trailer with the 2 UTV's. This system is also rated for a trailer up to 10,000lbs but has a much wider spread tongue weight capacity of 600-1,000lbs. The Curt # C69JR you found requires 800-1,000lbs of tongue weight which is going to be higher than you are going to have on your trailer. Typically tongue weight should fall around 10-15% of the trailer total weight. With a total weight around 5,350lbs you should...

• Solution for Rear Sag While Towing on 2022 Ford Bronco Badlands With Sasquatch Package
  The Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs # CSS-1094F are a fit for the front but not the rear. Unfortunately, there are no suspension enhancement options for the rear of your 2022 Bronco since you have the Sasquatch package. To help with that rear squat I recommend using a weight distribution hitch. A WDH is always going to be the best option to keep you level while towing. You want to choose one based no your loaded tongue weight. This includes the trailer as well as the weight of anything...

• Can Weight Distribution Hitch Be Used During 90 Degree Turns and Backing Up
  Backing up may or may not be allowed depending on the weight distribution hitch you decide to get. However, no WDH is going to allow you to make full 90 degree turns. The spring bars may come out, or the system may end up damaged, so you would need to disconnect the spring bars if you make a turn that sharp. This isn't an issue with most driving conditions, and in a lot of cases you can be careful and make a wider turn to avoid it. It sounds like you might have some specific conditions...

  The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR2500CA that fits your 2012 Ram 2500 and a weight distribution system, the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-1000, provide different benefits to your truck, and using both is a good idea based on how you described using your Ram. Since you use your truck to haul loads and not just tow, the Timbrens are going to offer your Ram's suspension the necessary support compared to hauling those loads without the Timbren's.

• Sway Bar Compatibility With Straight Tongue Trailer
  The Curt Friction Sway Control for Weight Distribution Systems # 17200 cannot be used on a straight tongue trailer. Your best option would be to use a weight distribution system pole tongue adapter and then a weight distribution system with integrated sway control. I recommend the Pole-Tongue Adapter for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems # EQ95-01-5950 and then the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control - Trunnion # FA92-00-0800 which is rated for total tongue...

• The Difference Between A Weight Distribution System and Weight Distribution System With Sway Control
  The Reese Weight Distribution System w Shank - Round Bar part # RE34FR does not utilize friction sway control. It is simply a weight distribution system that will redistribute the weight of your setup with the spring bars which will help to reduce sway but does not have active sway control at the bracket locations. A system like the Reese WDS RE34FR will help to eliminate rear sag of the tow vehicle and distribute the weight but it will not do much for sway. If you are experiencing sway...
