Equalizer Hitch Forum Discussion

Can anyone share their experience with setting up and towing using an Equalizer brand weight distribution hitch? Looking for tips on proper bar tension and sway control adjustment.

Equalizer hitches combine weight distribution with integrated sway control using friction on the L-brackets. The key to proper setup is ensuring your tow vehicle's front fender height returns as close as possible to its uncoupled baseline height when the spring arms are loaded.

Always make sure you measure on level ground and double-check your hitch ball height relative to the trailer coupler height before setting the washer angle in the hitch head.
