Heavy traffic and crosswinds can make a trailer feel like it has a mind of its own. The Curt Round Bar Weight Distribution System w/ Friction Sway Control lets you dial in exactly the amount of resistance you need to keep things steady. Its telescoping sway bar uses friction pads to fight side-to-side movement caused by gusts or passing semis. You can fine-tune it with a quick turn of the handle so your setup feels right, whether you’re hauling in calm or windy conditions. If you want even more control for longer trailers, the hitch head has mounting holes for an additional sway bar.
A properly leveled rig tows safer and smoother. This system spreads your trailer’s tongue weight evenly across all axles, restoring balance and steering control. It’s rated for trailers with 800-1,000 lbs tongue weight and up to 10,000 lbs gross towing weight. The round spring bars are made of solid, forged steel for durability and are powder coated in carbide black to withstand corrosion. When set up right, you’ll notice the rear end lift back to level—no more sag or wandering headlights.
Getting the head tilt right is what makes the system work best. Curt’s washer-stacking method lets you dial in the leverage during installation. Add washers to increase load transfer or remove them if it’s too firm. Once it’s locked in place, you’re set unless your tongue weight changes. It can take a little patience the first time you set it up, but after that you’ll have a predictable, balanced tow every trip.
This setup comes complete with everything you need—head assembly, adjustable shank, lift brackets, chains, lift handle, and a pre-torqued 2-5/16" hitch ball. Grease zerks in the head assembly make regular maintenance simple. Every main component is heavy-duty steel, so the system feels solid right out of the box and holds up under real-world towing loads.
The sway control bar must be removed before backing up or towing in wet, icy, gravel, or snow-covered conditions.

No problems at all. Went from Arkansas to Arizona and here and there and in between. Worked excellently.

With this hitch system, it really felt like our 35ft TT wasnt even there. Another year of abuse and no signs of letting up. No swaying on the interstate, complete control on the craziest of back roads and mountain climbs, and just a level, balanced and smooth dream of a ride. Couldnt ask for a better product.

This is a better weight distribution hitch than I ever owned and I have had at least 5. The sway is nothing like I had before you dont even feel the trailer moving.

Works great. It is on a new trailer now that is six feet longer than the original. I transferred the whole hitch. I dont need to tighten the sway bar often the hitch is that good.

Great product. I would never tow my 26’ box trailer without it. Equalizer Hitch is the only way to go and the Curt unit is great.

After using it for a year I have to say it far exceeded my expectations. The level system does everything it is suppose to and properly greases it has held up great. I am very thankful for this kit. The alternative on my ram 1500 was a very expensive suspension upgrade to haul my 27ft toy hauler. Thank you

This WD system comes with a hitch pin that will fit standard 2 inch receivers. A class V hitch can be a 2, 2.5, or 3 inch receiver. From the picture of your receiver it appears to have a reducer sleeve which indicates it is a 2.5 inch receiver which often needs a longer pin. We do have a a pin, part # 337HP6256WC, which would work.
