Video Transcript for Curt Weight Distribution C17512 Review
Today we're going to be taking a look at the replacement spring bar lift tool. This replaces the lift bar from your Curt TruTrack weight distribution system, with sway control. It's going to work with the 10,000 pound gross towing weight system, C17500, or the 15,000 pound system, C17501. This bar helps engage and disengage your spring bars on the bracket safely and easily. Basically, what it does is, this goes into the bracket that hangs down from the trailer frame, your spring bar would rest on here. And then this helps you get the proper leverage to slide the spring bar up and into place into the engaged position. The unit's made from a solid steel construction.
Has a black powder coated finish that's very durable. It's also going to do a great job at resisting rust and corrosion. On this end, we're going to have the rubber coated handle, that ensures a comfortable, safe grip. That's going to do it for today's look at the replacement spring bar lift tool.

The Spring Bar Lift Tool works great. It is a direct replacement for the other two I lost. This one I painted silver so it stands out on the black battery boxes. Maybe now I won't leave it on top of the boxes and drive off.

The bar I originally wanted was for a husky hitch, but as husky has it on back order I needed it right away. The team at etrailer pointed me instead to this bar. They sent it same day and when I got it, tried it out and it works great even with a husky hitch.

This really isn't an optional item! I can't think how you could possibly install your hitch without this little beauty. I'm not weak but you'd have to able to lift your truck by hand if you didn't have this to lift your hitch arms into place. Works like a dream.

I love ordering from etrailer. This time the product I ordered was out of stock and it took a few weeks for it to come in. Etrailer updated me several times on the shipping status and even offered me a similar product in stock. They have great customer service and their products are top notch!

- Replacement Parts for Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17500I have some good news to offset some of that anger from recently being scammed. We do indeed have all of the replacement parts available for the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17500 and I will list them out below. Replacement L-Pins and Clips # C17513 Replacement Spring Bar Lift Tool # C17512 Replacement Trunnion Spring Bar (quantity of 1) # C17536 Replacement Frame Brackets # C17508 Replacement Hardware Kit # C17550 Replacement Head # C17507 I have also attached the complete...
view full answer... - Can the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17500 be Purchased Without the ShankYou can piece out the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17500 with the following part numbers that include everything but the shank: Trunnion Spring Bar - # C17536 (need 2 of these) Spring Bar Lift Tool - # C17512 Frame Brackets - # C17508 Replacement Head - # C17507 Hardware Kit - # C17550 2" Hitch Ball - # 63018 or 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # C40085 This is slightly more cost-effective than purchasing the whole assembly, but also keep in mind that the assembly comes with the shank....
view full answer... - Availability Of Reese Lift Tool 58351 And Potential Substitutes Hey Jeremy, unfortunately the Reese 58351 lift tool is no longer available by itself. We used to carry them, but we sold our last one back in 2019. We do have some other similar lift tools available which may be suitable substitutes. The link below will show you our full selection of lift tools. They are all designed a bit differently than the Reese, but I suggest either the Curt lift tool # C17512 or the Blue Ox # BLU73FR. They may not be designed exactly the same, but they are designed...
view full answer... - Replacement Spring Bar Lever for Weight Distribution HitchHi Jeff; it sounds like you're talking about a lever/lift tool for the spring bars on your weight distribution hitch. Which one do you have? We have a few different options like the Equal-i-zer # EQ95-01-6050, Curt # C17512, or Fastway # FA92-00-6000. I don't see a record of it from past purchases so I don't know the exact one you're looking for, let me know in the comments below.
view full answer... - Replacement Lift Tool for a Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution SystemHey George. Sorry but we no longer have the Reese 58351 lift tool available for individual sale. They only come with the Reese Steadi-Flex systems like item # RP66560. We used to carry them, but we sold our last one back in 2019. We do have some other similar lift tools available which may be suitable substitutes. They are the Curt Lift Tool item # C17512 or the Blue Ox item # BLU73FR. They look a bit different but they are designed to do the exact same thing. If you have any additional...
view full answer... - Will The Curt Hitch Head 17107 Allow For Upgrading To The TruTrack 2P Weight Distribution Hitch? I reached out to Curt who informed me you will have to get a whole new weight distribution to upgrade to the Curt TruTrack 2P # C69JR. They said the Spring Bar # C86BR will not fit into your Head 17107. So you would only be able to reuse your hitch shank. On top of the 2 spring bars you would also need 2 of the Frame Brackets # C17508 along with a hitch Head # C26BR and Lift Arm # C17512.

view full answer... - Recommended Replacement Frame Brackets for the Curt TruTrack WDSSo the 17512 part number you gave me actually corresponds to the Replacement Spring Bar Lift Tool for Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17512. However, for the frame brackets we have the Frame Brackets for Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17515 for up to 8" frames or # C17508 for up to 6" frames. Both of these kits do include the pins and clips but if you wanted to purchase extra or whatever you can use # C17513.

view full answer... - How Does Lift Bar of Curt Weight Distribution System Remove Spring Bars of WD SystemCurt says to use the part # C17512 as a pry bar to remove the spring bars off of the bracket of the weight distribution system after taking the weight off the bars. Basically you would want to use the leverage of the bar between the trailer frame and the bracket to push it off.
