Create a more stable ride for your tow vehicle and trailer with a weight-distribution hitch. Adding spring bars to your towing system applies leverage, which transfers the load that is pushing down on the rear of your vehicle to all the axles on both your tow vehicle and your trailer, resulting in an even distribution of weight throughout. The result is a smooth, level ride, as well as the ability to tow the maximum capacity of your hitch.
Selecting a Weight-Distribution System
The tongue weight rating is the most important factor in determining which size weight-distribution system you should use. If the bars of the system you choose are rated too high for your setup, they will create a rigid ride, which can result in a bouncing trailer. If, on the other hand, the bars are not rated high enough, the system will be unable to properly distribute the weight, rendering it virtually useless.
To determine the proper weight rating for a weight-distribution system, you must first determine your trailer's tongue weight. Then add to that the weight of the cargo behind the rear axle of your tow vehicle. These two measurements make up the tongue weight rating for a weight-distribution system.
Fastway e2 Sway Control
The two points of sway control within the e2 are created by the steel-on-steel friction that occurs when the spring bars slide within the L-brackets that are mounted on the trailer tongue. Most traditional weight-distribution systems have spring bars that are suspended by chains. Although this ensures that the system is not so rigid as to create bounce in the trailer, it also allows a good deal of side-to-side play in the system.
The direct friction that is applied to the spring bars in the e2 system helps to stop sway once it has begun. The concept is similar to the way in which an add-on friction sway control device functions. When each spring bar moves forward or backward, or side to side, it rubs along the bracket, creating friction. The resistance created by this action limits the movement of the spring bar, thus preventing further side-to-side movement of the trailer.
Most add-on units feature some sort of friction material similar to that used in automotive brakes. But the e2 uses direct steel-on-steel contact to create resistance. This is the same sort of friction that is used with locomotives that pull loaded railcars weighing tons. No additional materials are needed. The steel will outlast any of those other materials, providing an extremely durable, functional sway-control system.

I have a very small and light trailer (GAWR 2950 lbs.) so finding the right weight distribution system was a challenge. There were only one or two available. I think I chose this one because it had sway control as part of the WD design and does not have to be disconnected in order to back up. It has worked well for me on 2000 mile and 7000 mile trips. There is one thing however that came up. On two or three occasions, I found after a day of travel that the brackets that attach to the trailer frame had been pulled forward or pushed backward by the friction of the spring bars. I finally realized that when attaching or repositioning them, the bolts need to be much tighter that I originally thought was sufficient to secure them and resist movement. so keep that in mind.

Still some movement from friction. Im hesitant to tighten it full, because The bolts feel soft and I dont want to risk stripping them on the road. I think Ill replace them with stronger bolts, then I wont have to worry about really tightening them.

Bought this primarily because it was much closer in load rating to my needs than the much heavier duty units mostly available. I'm pulling an Aliner with relatively high tongue weight (for that class)
behind a lifted Jeep. Without a leveler the Jeep was nose-up by an inch under load, exacerbated by a slight noise up stance unloaded.
Set it up yesterday and it went smoothly. Preliminary verdict is that it does level the jeep, back to within a 1/4" of the unloaded stance. Have yet to really put to the test with a fully loaded camping trip, so some adjustment may be necessary, but this is surely an improvement.
The anti sway benefits are yet to be seen. My preliminary trip from VA to TX before I installed any leveler or anti-sway did not show any real evidence of sway, and just by design I expect this kit to improve stability. No issue with backing was noticed with this unit installed.
Reasons for four and not five stars:
- torque ratings for all bolts are not provided with the kit. Notably missing are for the bolts that clamp to the trailer frame. Instructions reference proper use of a torque wrench in this section but don't provide a target
- price is substantially higher than for some heavier kits

I have linked a digital copy of the installation instructions for you. Step 8 - Final Tightening covers the torque specs for different parts of the Weight Distribution system.
After a year in still quite happy with this kit. Towing has been straightforward and I dont feel like Im pulling a wheelie despite the heavy tongue weight. There is additional setup time but weve got it down such that its only a few minutes, and the benefits while driving are easily worth it.

We have a 2018 Chevy Colorado and will be towing a 16’ Scamp trailer. After looking at all the applicable weights for this combination, combined with our checking in with other Scamp owners in two separate owner groups that we are belong to, we decided that we needed a WDH.
This is my first experience with such a hitch and am about 3/4 of the way thru the installation process. From everything that I see so far, it is a very well made hitch. The fit/finish is good and the hardware is all there, the instructions are well written and easy to follow. In addition, Fastway has a comprehensive video on YT that further explains the process.
I have yet to tow with it, so that will be the ultimate test. Should my opinions change, I will update my review.
I would add that while this is my first hitch, it is my third purchase from etrailer in so many months. As with my first two purchase, this was a top-shelf experience with these people.
I strongly recommend etrailer.

I have used this hitch on two different tow vehicles with excellent results for the last year.
The hitch was very easy to install on a enclosed utility trailer by following the manufacturer's directions and viewing the etrailer videos.
I have used this hitch on both vehicles with widely varying loads on the trailer.
The adjustments are very easy to make. I use a tongue weight scale to make sure the load is distributed such that I get a tongue weight that is 10% to 15% of the trailer weight.
My average trip with this hitch and the trailer is 900 miles.

Towed an r-pod 178 all over the country with my small truck using this and I wouldn't use anything else. Eliminated rear end sag, and even in heavy wind everything was super stable. Installation was simple but takes some time. Be sure to have loads in trailer and truck similar to what you'll normally be using. Also, I had no issues with noise like some say is a drawback of this style.

Just finished installation of the Fastway WDH on my Rpod 180 (approx 3200 lbs loaded) with my TV, Lexus RX350! I had a mechanic/camping friend do the installation. Pleased with everything so far - did a test ride and definitely feel (I think) a difference, TV feels more solid, not as bouncy and had zero sway when the tractor trailer passed us on the highway. I had numerous people in the camping/RV industry tell me I don't need a WDH but after extensive research, I think this will make a huge difference on towability and safety. I'm going to finish my analysis with another trip to the scales. Customer support at etrailer was awesome, great service, answered questions and very helpful.

Installed on a T&B camper trailer being towed by a Mazda CX5. Is a fairly straightforward install as long as you follow the well-written directions carefully. Being slow and methodical it took me all afternoon. On a test drive it seems to tow well.
Note that the removable hitch is fairly heavy (weight-wise) and requires some creativity on where and how to store it when not in use (I keep it in the trailer or the house, not in the car).

The 450 WD sway control has worked well on my Honda Odyssey this past year, for pulling 2000 lb 17 ft trailer. The Odyssey has a soft, low suspension. So having a lighter weight system is very helpful. No problems with semis whisking past on the interstate, or with wind, hills, or steep driveways.

Awesome item! After following the set-up video we have had no issues with this WD set-up. I have to look in the rearview mirror to know the camper is behind me! This set up keeps the camper tracking true and straight on the road, I hardly notice when big rigs pass by and being able to back the camper without having to disconnect anything is awesome. My wife and I hook up the camper with this system quite easily! Highly recommend!

I can understand where weight capacities and limits can be confusing. Your 2016 R-pod 179 dry weight is 2649 lbs with a payload of 1136 lbs. Total you are looking at 3785 lbs with a tongue weight just under 300 lbs. It is true that you do not want your weight distribution set up to extremely exceed the weight capacity of the trailer weight however, I always recommend exceeding it by at least 100 lbs just to cover yourself.

I would be happy to help you find the correct weight distribution hitch for towing your 16' T&B 320S with your 2017 Lexus RX 350 F Sport, but you will need to confirm the total tongue weight of your setup.
Total tongue weight is the tongue weight of your fully loaded and ready to tow trailer plus the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of your RX 350. The easiest way to get an accurate tongue weight measurement is with a tongue weight scale like the # e99044, but there are other... view full answer...
For a 2022 Geo Pro 12RK camper the Fastway e2 weight distribution part # FA92-00-0450 would be the correct system to reduce the sag you are experiencing with your Outback. I would recommend verifying that your hitch is rated for using weight distribution as not all of them can handle the additional stress. It would be printed on the sticker that has the hitch's towing capacities. You should see two sets of capacities. One that says weight carrying and another that says weight distribution. view full answer...
In order to choose the best weight distribution system, you will want to factor in the total tongue weight of your towing setup. That's both the loaded tongue weight of your trailer and any added cargo coming from behind the rear axle of your truck (any gear that may be in the bed).

To tighten the shank on the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Hitch # FA92-00-0450, I recommend using the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061. This will eliminate the rattle and play in your 2" receiver which will both reduce the noise from the hitch in the receiver and extend the life of both parts.
If you were to use shims inside the receiver with the shank they will likely come out while you are driving due to the vibration that the receiver will absorb from the trailer. view full answer...

You are correct that the Trunnion bars will give you the best ground clearance for your R-Pod trailer and 2003 Honda Odyssey.

SUVs such as your 2000 GMC Yukon XL tend to have a softer rear suspension than trucks for the comfort of passengers.
