Anyone who’s towed a travel trailer knows that a balanced, level ride makes all the difference. The Curt Short-Arm Weight Distribution System with Sway Control spreads the load evenly across the axles of both your tow vehicle and trailer for a smoother, more stable haul. With a tongue weight range of 800 lbs – 1,000 lbs and a 10,000 lb maximum gross towing weight, it’s built to keep everything level and controlled mile after mile. The solid forged-steel trunnion spring bars (28-3/8") apply consistent leverage to balance the load, giving you better control and confidence on the highway.
Strong winds and passing semis can make towing tense. This setup includes a friction sway control bar that dampens trailer movement caused by curving roads, gusts, or sudden maneuvers. Its adjustable tension lets you fine-tune the resistance so you can choose the exact level of stability you want. The integrated handle makes it simple to engage or disengage the friction bar, and if you need to reverse, two quick-release pins let you remove it in seconds.
Getting the right tilt and tension shouldn’t be a guessing game. This system uses Curt’s traditional washer-based head adjustment, so you can add or remove washers on the spacer rivet to set the perfect tilt. Fine-tune your spring-bar tension by switching links in the lift chains. The included snap-up lever reduces the lifting strain during setup, making hookups easier even when working solo.
Every piece of this system is built tough—from the powder-coated steel head and shank that resist corrosion to the pre-torqued 2-5/16" hitch ball with 1-1/4" diameter shank. The 12" shank offers up to 7-3/4" of rise or 1/2" of drop for flexible trailer alignment. With all hardware included—head assembly, adjustable shank, sway control bar, spring bars, lift brackets, chains, handle, pin, and clip—you get a complete setup ready to install and go. Backed by a 1-year limited warranty, the Curt Short-Arm kit is a proven way to make towing smooth, level, and controlled from the first mile to the last.
