Replacement Lift Brackets and Sway Control Recommendation for Reese Weight Distribution System

Updated 06/19/2017 | Published 06/17/2017

Question:

I have the Reese head 61241 BD. The bars and mounts that the chain hooks into on the camper are missing. The camper is a Jayco with a 480 lb TW unloaded. Also looking what would be the best sway control for this set up ?

It sounds like you are talking about the lift brackets such as # RP6637. They attach to the trailer frame and hold the chains at the ends of the spring bars.

As far as sway control the best option is going to depend on the design of the spring bars in your weight distribution system. If the bars have the hook end like bar # RP22225 then dual-cam sway control # RP26002 is the best option because it stops sway before it starts.

If your spring bars are straight at the ends then your best option is a friction anti-sway bar, # 83660. I have linked videos on both types of sway control for you.
