Is Disengaging and Engaging Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System Easy
Updated 06/19/2019 | Published 06/18/2019 >
Question:
Can this system be easily disengaged when towing an empty trailer? I have a light trailer of 500 lbs but when fully loaded it is 2,500 lbs. Itd be nice to drive hours to a destination with the WDH disengaged, load up the trailer, engage the hitch, and head back home in weight distribution mode.

Expert Reply:
Basically you'd have to just remove the spring bars of the Fastway e2 kit part # FA92-00-0450 to disengage it which would not be overly difficult at all. They have to be removed/installed everytime the trailer is used anyway so you'd just be delaying installing the bars until the trailer is loaded.
