Question:
I am looking to replace my old WD hitch/sway control with a blue Ox sway control with camber. I have found three to choose from and cannot tell the difference between these three units: BXW1000, BLU66FR and BXW1006. Can you, please explain the diference?

Hi Michael; the difference between these systems is the shank. The # BLU66FR has an 11" rise and 5" drop, the # BXW1000 has an 8" rise and 2" drop, and the # BXW1006 has a 13" rise and 7" drop. Everything else about these systems is identical. You can measure the distance from the ground to the inside top of your receiver, and the bottom of your coupler, then take the difference to find the rise/drop you need for your setup.
