Nothing makes a towing trip more stressful than feeling the trailer sway when a semi passes or a strong gust hits. The Equal-i-zer weight distribution system uses a true 4-Point Sway Control design to keep everything tracking straight. Rotational friction in the hitch head and steel-on-steel contact at the sway brackets work together to fight side-to-side movement before it starts. The result is a solid, confident feel even at highway speeds or in gusty conditions.
When the rear of the tow vehicle squats under load, steering and braking can suffer. The Equal-i-zer applies leverage through its trunnion spring bars to spread that weight across all axles. With a 600-1,000 lb tongue-weight range and 10,000 lb gross-trailer-weight rating, it creates a smooth, level ride for both tow vehicle and trailer. The chromoly steel spring bars are strong yet flexible enough to absorb bumps and return to shape softly, cutting down on bounce and jolts.
This hitch is made from dipped, corrosion-resistant steel and uses chromoly alloy for the spring arms—materials chosen for strength and long-term durability. The head tilt adjusts with a simple washer-and-rivet setup so you can fine-tune the leverage to match your exact load. Once set, everything locks solidly into place for consistent performance trip after trip.
The clamp-on sway control brackets mount anywhere between 27" and 32" from the coupler, and no drilling is needed. Using the included snap-up lever, it takes only a few moments to lift the bars onto the L-brackets and secure them with the new snap pins. You can back into campsites or maneuver in tight spots without disconnecting the system, saving time every time you park.
The kit includes the head assembly, 2-5/16" hitch ball, two spring bars, sway brackets, lift handle, spacer rivet and washers, plus all necessary hardware. An adjustable shank is sold separately so you can pick the exact drop or rise that fits your trailer setup. Limited lifetime warranty covers long-term use.

After a year of use I can say that the Equalizer has lived up to its promise. It is extremely helpful when hauling autos around in our enclosed trailer. We consider it just part of the normal hauling equipment now.

All I can add is it works and I want pull an every without it. Now that it is broken in it is quieter too.

One year later, everything still works great, Ive touched up the paint, and I still love it, BUT, Im not that impressed with how the ball has survived. Not a detractor, Ill just replace it when it gets to that point.
Do you have a question about this Weight Distribution Hitch?

Not a big fan of this system. The unequal tension of the bars became worse when I got rid of my 07 Silverado 1500 for a 93 Ram W250 with a custom flatbed Its 11 higher, so everything had to be reset to a new, longer hitch. The Reese system was really good - so infuriating that they discontinued it AND parts for it! The way of the world today. Im probably going to scrap this entire setup, and trailer, for a gooseneck for less hassle, more stability, & speed of hookup.
