Question:
I have the e2 hitch round bar system. Where the round bar turns flat, it lies on the “L” -late. Should this “L” plate have forward n back movement? Or should it be so tight as not to move ? Thx

Helpful Expert Reply:
The l-shaped brackets you are referring to on a Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System like part # FA94-00-0600 should not move back and forth. If they do move back and forth then you will need to make sure they are torqued correctly (75 ft. lbs.) and that they are the correct distance back from the coupler (no more than 30").
