Question:

Have bought a used Curt true arc weight distribution hitch but don’t know the weight size on the trunion bars there’s no markings or part numbers on the bar there rust free. I suspect there to heavy for my app. Came off a 28 ft toy hauler using on a 24 ft toy hauler. Still have to finish trailer and load it to calculate tongue weight. How can I find the weight rating on bars I have

Expert Reply:

There isn't any indication on the bars, like how Blue Ox uses the "dot" system to signify weight ratings.

Curt assigns their trunnion bars are to the head unit of the WDS.

For instance the Replacement Trunnion Spring Bar for Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17537 are the replacement bars for the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17501.

If you're needing a lighter application, Curt also offers # C17499 which is for applications with a tongue weight range of 500-800lbs, and a maximum GTW of 8,000-lbs, or, the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17500, which is for applications with a tongue weight range of 800-1,000lbs, and a maximum GTW of 10,000-lbs.
