Andersen weight distribution hitches are easy to install and hook up, with a lighter feel and quiet operation. They work well on lighter trailers, including smaller 3 x 2 frames, and options include a 2-5/16" ball and 6" drop/rise. Take time placing the A-frame brackets since chain-bolt threads have limited range. For heavier rigs needing strong redistribution, results can vary.
Yes, there is a version with a 2-5/16 inch ball. Confirm your coupler size before ordering and match the ball size to your trailer. Check your trailer's weight so the hitch rating and ball choice align with your setup.
Installation and hookup are generally easy with clear instructions. Positioning the brackets on the trailer A-frame can be tricky—measure carefully. There is a limited amount of threads on the chain bolts, so if brackets are over an inch off, too loose or too tight can be hard to correct.
It can work for sway control, but for actual weight distributing some setups see limited benefit. If your trailer is 50% (or heavier) of the towing vehicle's curb weight, make sure the system meets your expectations. Consider how much distribution you need and test your setup after install to verify front axle recovery and level stance.
They tend to be easy on and off, reduce bouncing compared to some setups, and don't make that awful noise. Some sway can still show up in the wake of other vehicles, so verify adjustment and tongue weight. A short test drive after setup helps fine-tune chain tension and bracket position.
Yes, it can be used for a lighter hitch weight trailer 350lbs and smaller frames 3 x 2. Adjust the system to accommodate your weight. Verify A-frame bracket placement clearance and confirm tongue weight falls in the system's workable range before towing.
