Weight Distribution
When a trailer is connected to a tow vehicle, the tongue weight typically causes the rear of the tow vehicle to lower and the front to raise.
The purpose of a weight distribution hitch is to remove excessive weight from the tow vehicle's rear axle and distribute it to the front wheels and throughout the trailer frame.
The use of a Weight Distribution Hitch gives you a softer ride even when towing heavy loads.
Adjustment is simple because of the easy-to-operate snap-up brackets that allow spring bar tension to be adjusted by changing links in the support chains.
Incorporating a Weight Distribution Hitch allows you to adjust for various trailer tongue weights within the spring bar weight range by applying tension on the spring bars until the car or tow vehicle is level.
Never exceed the weight capacity of your trailer hitch.

Sway Control
Sway controls attach to the hitch arms and to the spring bars of the weight distribution system. The Sway Control unit dampens trailer sway that is caused by traffic and crosswinds. Many factors can contribute to trailer sway - the design of the trailer, the suspension, tire inflation pressures, configuration of the tow vehicle, towing speeds and hitch weight.
Types of Sway Control
Sway control can be either Passive or Active. Passive (or Friction) sway control is simple and uncomplicated, using friction to resist the pivotal movement of the trailer. It 'stiffens' the coupling between the tow vehicle and trailer.
Active sway control goes beyond resisting sway and actually works to correct it. The Dual Cam Sway Control system is an active sway control system that holds down the start of swaying while at the same time allowing free and easy vehicle and trailer interaction.
