Create a 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.
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.

works great!
I appreciate that the hitch was sent out within a few hours of it being ordered.
Great product came from great help
It does a awesome job pulling are 26 ft camper behind a half ton pickup
Works Great, excellent service
I ordered the wrong system and had to order longer bars, they worked perfectly.
Like your product, but the packaging leaves a lot to be desired. This is the second one we bought and both were delivered in broken damaged boxes. Luckily all the parts were there. Thanks for the quick delivery.
Easier to use then another brand. Only problem was that somehow I bent one of torsion bar retaining clips. Was afraid I would ruin it trying to straighten it out but didn't. I use a colored zip tie to mark the proper chain link to eliminate guessing.
have has this hitch for over a year now and have had zero issues. It is used exclusively to pull my 28 foot travel trailer. Heavy duty and easy to use.
Installed on 14,500 rated trailer pulled 1400 miles round trip no issues, no sway, truck and trailer leveled out for a smooth ride.
I’ve used this hitch as and RV Transporter for a year now and this is a great weight distribution hitch at a great price!
Unfortunately, I have not been able to put my new towing system to use yet. However, the product was delivered very quickly, and shipping was free. Very satisfied with how easily the parts were to assemble. Great experience, so far, with etrailer.com
I have a 2016 F150 4x4 that I leveled and I'm pulling a V-nose enclosed car trailer. The shank that came with the hitch won't allow me to level the trailer. So I ordered a 12 inch drop shank to allow me to level the trailer. I thought the one came with it would work . I will give further review once I receive the new shank.
Happy with the product. Had the trailer company set up the hitch on my Tundra with out a hitch!!! Ha.
Your torsion bar hitch and service were impecable. The people at Husky Cargo trailer in Florida that built the car hauler should take lessons on how to build a trailer and treat paying customers.
