Will a Weight Distribution System Allow a Vehicle to Tow Heavier than The Max Towing Capacity  

Published 08/25/2015

Question:

I own a 2005 chevy equinox. The towing capacity is 3500 lbs. I have a trail lite 24 ft camper with a weight of 3700 lbs. Would I be able to pull this trailer with a weight distribution system?

Helpful Expert Reply:

Unless there is a second, higher towing capacity for your 2005 Chevy Equinox when used with a weight distribution system there is no way to tow above the towing capacities of a vehicle.

Check the hitch on your vehicle to see if there is a different weight capacity for use with a weight distribution system.

I attached a help article on weight distribution systems for you to check out as well.
