Pro Tip: Before you invest in a weight distribution hitch, make sure your cargo is evenly loaded in your trailer to keep the weight balanced. If you still have a hard time even after balancing your tongue weight, a weight distribution hitch should help.


L-Brackets vs. Add-On Friction Sway Bars

  • L-brackets that hold spring bars in place provide a tried-and-true method of sway control
    • Provides weight distribution and sway control in one system
    • Ensures steady towing, but can be noisy
  • Friction sway bars can be added to a standard weight distribution hitch to force your trailer back in line
    • Has to be removed at times (e.g. in the rain or when you're backing up), but its adjustable tension is a plus
    • Doesn't work with surge-type actuators

A close-up image shows weight distribution L-brackets

If you've got a moderate amount of sway behind you when you tow, and you want to save a few hundred bucks on getting a more premium option like an Equalizer or the B&W Continuum - which you know would be overkill for your application anyway - the Fastway e2 might be the middle of the road option you're after. It creates a rigid system of steel bars and L-brackets that rub together to create friction, which prevents your trailer from getting off track behind your tow vehicle. And it uses friction to force your trailer back in line if a strong crosswind or passing truck is a bit too much for the rigid hold to handle on its own.


A close-up image shows where the spring bar grinds on the steel bracket

Because the steel-on-steel friction of the bars and L-brackets is noisy, don't be alarmed if you hear some banging, creaking, and grinding. It's just the system working to correct sway.


Fun Fact: Steel-on-steel friction is what locomotives use to keep multi-ton railcars from swaying.


Adjusting the Head Tilt

  • Adding washers adds tension, but it's not a case of "the more the merrier"
  • Stacking washers can be a pain, but you only need to do it once, or if your tongue weight changes

A close-up image of the Reese Pro Round Bar hitch head shows the rivet and washers during installation

To adjust the tilt, simply slide washers onto the spacer rivet and insert it into the head assembly. Once the spacer is in place, tighten the shank bolts to secure the head to the shank. To check if your truck and trailer are level, you'll need to hookup and release your tongue jack. Repeating this step means adding more washers if the rear of your truck is sagging, or removing washers if too much weight has been distributed to your tow vehicle's front axle.


While the washer-stacking method allows you to fine-tune the setup at the time of installation, it's going to require some patience. It can be time consuming because, if you don't get everything right the first time (which, you probably won't), you'll have to take the head unit apart to adjust the washers. You might have to raise or lower the L-brackets too to get the tension just right, and that's a bit of a pain also. Not to mention that you might have to repeat this process if your tongue weight changes or if you swap out your tow vehicle.


Pro Tip: For a step-by-step guide on how to fully install the e2, check out our videos at the top of this page. Our installers even have some advice to offer on measuring your vehicle's squat.


Why Use a Weight Distribution Hitch?

Diagram showing weight distribution on a truck and towing a camper

  • Prevents uneven tire wear on your vehicle and trailer
  • Keeps the rear of your tow vehicle from sagging
  • Lets you tow to the max capacity of your trailer hitch
  • Stops your headlights from pointing up at the sky
  • Gives you control over steering your rig

Selecting the Right Weight Distribution System

  • Think "Goldilocks"
    • If you go for overbuilt, you'll have a rigid ride
    • If it's not strong enough, it's virtually useless
  • Let your tongue weight be your guide

Your tongue weight is the first thing you need to know when figuring out which weight distribution system you need. Most people think that if they get the highest-rated system possible, it'll be smooth sailing. But actually, this will create a rigid ride and a bouncing trailer. On the other hand, if the system isn't strong enough, it won't be able to distribute the weight properly, making it virtually useless.


Once you know your trailer's tongue weight, add it to the weight of the cargo behind the rear axle of your tow vehicle. Then just choose a weight distribution system rated for that combined tongue weight.

  • The Proper Set Up of Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System on 2007 GMC Sierra 1500
    The goal of a weight distribution system such as the Curt TruTrack # C17499 is to ensure a level setup with the tow vehicle and trailer; you do not need to get back to the unloaded factory stance of your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500. Before using any weight distribution system it is important that you get the correct one. To determine the right system, you will first need to know your total tongue weight (TTW), which is the tongue weight of your fully loaded and ready to go trailer plus the weight...

  • Recommended Sway Control for a 2019 Ram 1500 w/ Air Ride Pulling a Pop-Up Trailer
    Hey Chip! If you're dealing with that much sway, I would recommend a weight distribution system not one of the SumoSpring systems. I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control item # FA92-00-0450. This system is built for smaller trailers like yours and works with tongue weights up to 450 lbs. With the weight of your trailer and gear combined this would definitely get that sway under control. Since you already have factory air ride and it's not helping your sway...

  • I Have a Surveyor Legend 202RBLE Travel Trailer, 5,000LBS Dry, What Should My WDH be Rated for?
    Hello Dan, Wow, that is a really nice camper, Congrats! I’m going to go ahead and say the dealer messed that up. Camper dealers are great at selling campers, but unfortunately, that’s often where their expertise ends. When choosing the right Weight Distribution Hitch, it’s most important to match it as closely as possible to your trailer's tongue weight, rather than the overall trailer weight. Tongue weight typically falls between 10–15% of the total trailer weight. So, let’s say you’re...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Shank for Drop with Fastway e2 System
    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. I've attached an article to assist. The Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control - Trunnion # FA92-00-0450 has a maximum rise from the ball platform of 6 inches, and maximum drop of 2 inches and adjustments 1-1/4 inches in between.

  • Installing the Fastway E2 Trunnion Weight Distribution System with Jeep Quadra Lift Suspension
    To set up a weight distribution system with your Jeep you will want to first disable the quadra lift system and setup the weight distribution system without it. To do this you will use the spare tire changing setting. To assist with changing a spare tire, the Quadra-Lift air suspension system has a feature which allows the automatic leveling to be disabled. Press and hold both the "Up" and "Down" buttons simultaneously between 5 and 10 seconds, a message will appear in the EVIC stating...

  • Weight Distribution for 1994 Toyota Landcruiser Towing 3,000 lb Trailer
    Hey Benjamin, so I looked up the towing capacity of your 1994 Land Cruiser and it appears to have a 5k capacity so your 4,800 lb trailer would be fine. When it comes to weight distribution and ground clearance there is a small reduction but the round bar systems are the ones that reduce ground clearance the most so for you that is not the route I would go. They all make noise though as there's a lot of tension in the metal components that have to move. You will measure from the center...

  • Do I Need A Weight Distribution System To Tow A 2400lb Camper With My 2012 Jeep Wrangler?
    Anytime your gross trailer weight is more than 50% of your vehicle's weight or if the rear of your vehicle sags when the trailer is hooked up you will want to use a weight distribution hitch. Since your camper weighs 2400lbs and is more than 50% of your 2012 Jeep Wrangler's estimated curb weight of 3760lbs, it is definitely recommended to use a weight distribution system. I recommend going with Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control - Trunnion - 4,500 lbs GTW, 450 lbs TW...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch For A 2023 Jay Flight SLX 154BH And 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe
    Hi Lynn, The Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17499 is rated for more than twice your trailer's GVWR so it would be too stiff to help you properly distribute the weight. The trailer's GVWR is 3,600lbs and your Santa Fe only has a 3,500lb towing capacity so you'd really need to minimize what you bring with you to avoid overloading its capacity. For the hitch I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # FA92-00-0450. This has a 4,500lb GTW...

    An additional transmission cooler as well as some suspension enhancement will help to keep your 2008 Toyota 4Runner from wearing out as quickly because of the stress of towing. One of the best transmission coolers that we have is the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit # D13503. There aren't any specific fits when it comes to coolers so you want to try to install the biggest cooler you can. This cooler measures 11" wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep. You can reference the...

  • Can I Tow a 2017 Jayco Hummingbird 17FD Without a Weight Distribution System?
    For your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, a weight distribution system is not required with the light weight of the travel trailer. However, the reason why many would choose to use a weight distribution system on a trailer that is 2,900 lbs is to help control sway from crosswinds and passing motorists. Because it is a rented trailer, you may not want to deal with the additional setup or cost but adding a system like the Fastway e2 # FA92-00-0450 will absolutely help with sway control and will...

  • Will Fastway e2 or Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution Help Level Trailer With 330 lb Tongue Weight
    It will; what is happening is the tongue weight is creating the "V" you mentioned, so you are not towing level, and a weight distribution system is exactly what you need. This will level you out, and for your 330 lb loaded tongue weight, you do have the correct Fastway system: - Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control # FA92-00-0450 The # FA92-00-0450 will correct the "V" and ensure your Jayco is level, and even though you mentioned you didn't have sway on your last trip,...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System For R-Pod With 315 Lb Tongue Weight
    When choosing a weight distribution system you wan't to find a system that is rated properly for your loaded tongue weight. You want the loaded tongue weight to fall in the center of the range that the weight distribution system spring bars are rated for. The Curt systems that you have mentioned part # C17499, part # C17500 and part # C17501 are all overrated for your tongue weight if it's 315 lbs loaded. Although the Curt systems are really great options there is not a system rated low...

  • Replacement Head for Reese 06623-099
    Hi John; the Reese 06623-099 has been discontinued since 2011. In the past we have had someone successfully replace theirs using the # RP58167 but it will also require replacement spring bars since the ones you have now won't fit. If you let me know what yours are rated for I can find the right replacement bars for your setup. As an alternative you could go ahead and replace the entire system. The cost difference won't be much, if any, depending on the system. For a replacement I recommend...

  • Trailer Hitch and Tow Capacity of 2018 Lexus RX 350
    I Googled the owner's manual for a 2018 Lexus RX 350 and it said the maximum towing capacity was 3,500 lbs, and the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13272 has a 4,000 lb towing capacity so you will not have any problems using this hitch for towing less than the 3,000 lbs you mentioned. That said, we do recommend verifying all towing capacity information with vehicle manufacturers as they have the final say on these matters.

  • Cable Lock For Helping Secure Fastway Weight Distribution FA92-00-0450
    Hey Glenn, There isn't a steel cover, but you can certainly use a cable lock to help secure your Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0450; for that I recommend going with the Master Lock Quantum Self-Coiling, Combination Cable Lock # 8122D. This is a thick 1/2" diameter cable and since it has a combination you don't have to worry about having an extra key to keep track of.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch For V-Nose Trailer
    Thank you for providing that picture and measurement. Based on what you have there there is definitely enough room to install a weight distribution hitch. I recommend the Fastway e2 which will require placing the brackets 27-30" back along the frame, leaving you with room to spare. The correct system will depend on the tongue weight of your loaded setup. The best way to find this is to measure with a scale like the # e99044.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch for Somerset E3 Pop Up Camper
    That answer you looked at is a bit confusing and I think it gave you the wrong idea about weight distribution. A weight distribution hitch should not be selected based on your tow vehicle. The most important thing is making sure your loaded tongue weight falls into the tongue weight range of the hitch. I don't know what year or exact model you have but I'm guessing 268 lbs is the dry tongue weight. You will need to measure to see what your loaded tongue weight is, or at least find the...

    For your 3,300 lbs trailer, I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control item # FA92-00-0450. This system is specifically designed for lighter weight trailers like yours. You don't want to use a higher capacity system because it will give you a stiff uncomfortable ride. This system works with tongue weights up to 450 lbs. Tongue weight is typically 10% -15% of your trailer's total weight so this will be perfect for yours. The Fastway e2 item # FA92-00-0450 has...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch for 2019 Toyota Highlander Towing 2018 R-Pod 179
    The weight distribution hitch in the question you looked at was based on the loaded trailer tongue weight. It is impossible to find the right WDH based on the vehicle alone. It looks like your 2018 R-Pod 179 has a dry tongue weight of 292 lbs so based on the GVWR you're probably maxing out tongue weight around 400 lbs. To be sure, I recommend measuring your fully loaded tongue weight setup with a scale like the # e99044. Based on that information, the Fastway e2 # FA94-00-0600 would not...

    Based on the weight of your 2021 R-Pod 195 the Fastway e2 part # FA92-00-0450 would be rated too low and wouldn't be effective. You would need to go about the higher rated # FA92-00-0600 which is rated for 250-600 lbs. Your loaded and unloaded tongue weight would fall within it's range so it would work great either way.

  • Can A Weight Distribution Hitch Be Used Together With An Electronic Sway Control System
    The Tuson Sway Control is only going to activate the brakes on the trailer to help pull it back straight in line with the tow vehicle so it would be compatible with a weight distribution hitch. The GWVR I'm seeing for a Safari Condo Alto F1743 has it being under 2,000lbs, which would make a weight distribution hitch overkill. Too high of a rating for a weight distribution hitch can actually give you a negative effect so I would first check the fully loaded tongue weight to see where you...

  • Is Fastway FA94-00-600 Too Overrated for 2023 Coleman Rubicon 1200 RK?
    I'd recommend following the insturctions in the help article below to measure the actual loaded tongue weight of your 2023 Coleman Rubicon 1200 RK, and seeing where it lands. The Fastway # FA94-00-0600 you have is rated for tongue weights between 400-600lbs so you're possibly overrated, but might be right at the minimum tongue weight depending on how you've loaded the trailer. If you find you're under 400lbs tongue weight youi'll want to switch to the Fastway # FA92-00-0450 instead which...

  • Recommendation For Reducing Rear Sag On a 2022 Toyota Highlander Towing a Pop Up Camper
    I recommend using a Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0450 as there is not any suspension enhancement available for your 2022 Toyota Highlander XLE. The Fastway e2 will not only help to reduce rear end sag but it will also add trailer sway prevention to make towing safer. You can use this hitch on trailers weighing up to 4,500lbs and a tongue weight up to 450lbs. You will need either a 2" # 40038 or 2-5/16" # C40005 hitch ball to match your pop up campers coupler.

  • 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...
