Can RV Trailer Hitch Use Weight Distribution

Updated 06/10/2020 | Published 06/08/2020

Question:

Recently purchased a receiver for my 5th wheel trailer to pull doubles. I believe the part # is 30703. It states not to use a equalizer hitch with it. I was wondering why that was.

Thank you for purchasing from us the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 22" to 72" Wide # 13703, which is the part I believe you are talking about (the part number you referenced is not one we carry).

This hitch, as well as others, is not able to use a weight distribution/equalizer hitch because it is not built for that amount of stress.
