Are There Shorter Spring Bars for a Reese Weight Distribution System

Question

Question:

I need shorter trunnion bars for my Reese leveler. Does anyone make bars that are around 25 or 26 inches? My trailer has a short tongue. Thanks

I do have an option for you but Curt is the only weight distribution system manufacturer that is offered with short arms. The Curt Short-Arm Weight Distribution System part # C17332 for example has a 10K capacity and comes with 28-3/8" long arms. There's no way to use these arms with your Reese system this means you'll need a new system. These are the shortest spring bars we offer for a weight distribution system.
