Details: The chief player in the specialized towing world is the weight distribution (WD) hitch. A CURT weight distribution hitch is a special towing product that provides improved vehicle and trailer control by leveling the trailer and more evenly distributing its weight across the tow vehicle's axles. Similar to a ball mount, a CURT weight distribution hitch mounts into the receiver tube opening of a trailer hitch and latches onto the trailer's A-frame using two spring bars. This allows the hitch to lift up on the back of the vehicle, so to speak, and level out the tow vehicle and the heavy trailer. CURT weight-distributing hitches are commonly used on RVs and can also be applied to flatbeds, boat trailers, heavy utility trailers, livestock trailers and other large loads. With a 2" x 2" shank, our WD hitches are compatible with our classes 3 and 4 trailer hitches as well as our Xtra Duty, Commercial Duty and RV trailer hitches. The CURT 17050 round bar weight distribution hitch comes with forged steel bars, built-in attachment tabs for sway bars and a durable powder coat finish for long-lasting corrosion resistance. It features a gross trailer weight capacity of up to 6,000 lbs. and a tongue weight rating of 800 lbs. This round bar WD hitch also comes with an adjustable head, hookup brackets, spring bar chains, U-bolts and a pin and clip. To complement this weight distribution hitch and maximize sway control on your towing setup, CURT offers a sway control unit that mounts onto the weight distribution assembly and reduces the lateral movement in your trailer, commonly caused by wind and passing traffic. The trailer ball is sold separately. Remember, while a weight distribution hitch will increase the gross trailer weight capacity of most trailer hitches, the vehicle's weight carrying capacity must be taken into consideration before towing a heavier trailer.
