Question:
Can Curt round spring bars be used with a Reese weight distribution hitch head?
asked by: John G
Expert Reply:
No, most weight distribution hitch heads have specific spring bar fitments so they're typically not interchangeable. You would want to find the specific model of your Reese weight distribution hitch and determine the proper spring bar capacity for it in order to use the system. Some systems will allow you to use multiple capacity spring bars within their model, while others require specific spring bars for each weight capacity.
For example, if you had the Reese Strait-Line # RP66084 you would need part # RP66009.
If you can figure out what you have I'd be happy to look for some replacement spring bars.

We have a Reese hitch and lost one of the spring bars. We have kit# 49901. Is there a replacement available for the spring bar? Would it work if we bought 2 new spring bars of a different make/weight capacity? Thanks.
