Great
Great product if you can’t bare the cost of the bigger brands. I have a 8500 pound 26’ camper and this makes a world of a difference compared to a normal hitch.

Necessary for SUV... valuable for a truck.
If there is a single purchase you must make with a bumper pull camper, it is a weight distribution hitch. It completely changes the game when driving with a reasonably large trailer. The anti-sway bar is a nice add. The fact that it comes as a unit makes it very easy to attach. I gave it four stars on installation because the sway bar does require you to bolt to the frame. This is going to be difficult for some. But once in place, it is very easy to attach. I believe the same company makes one that does not require bolts in the frame for a little more money. So that might be worth it for those who are nervous about drilling through the frame. Not bolting to the frame also allows you to move the hitch to other campers, so that is something to consider. Back on the topic of the weight distribution hitch. I was driving a Ford Expedition, and it completely changes how it handles. Without it, you get a "wag the dog" feel as the front wheels feel like they are ready to lift off the ground. Once you lock this in place (and adjust properly), you get a smooth ride and your front wheels sit comfortably on the ground, even on bumpy roads. One tip for beginners is this, the weight distribution hitch uses clamps for your frame (as opposed to the sway bar that bolts on). The clamp is tightened with a bolt that presses against the frame. You only need tighten that bolt enough to keep it from moving. Your frame will begin to bend if you just keep cranking, so don't do that. You have to remember, the clamp brackets have a continual downward force and will stay strongly in place with the camper attached. One more thing. This system is heavy. This is a good thing. It is solidly made. But if you yourself are smaller framed, you might need a second person to help you install the hitch and stabilizing bars. Otherwise, just consider it like your free weight lifting gym membership while out on vacation :-) All in all, this was an essential purchase for the camper and I am very happy with how well it works and how easy it is to use once you get past the small learning curve.

Works great but chain hooks could be better
Installed last week. Took 2-3 hours only due to starting with all 8 spacer washers for cant (Per instructions), ended up disassembling and reassembling 3 times down to 3 washers to get angle right for hooking on 1 link down on chain. Last trailer seemed to have 6 or 7 spacers so not unreasonable. Have a 2"X 5" rectangular tube frame, not c channel, Chain hook brackets work but kind of funky, going to get some 3/8" self tappers and attach through the provided holes. Tension screw doesn't really work that good on tube frame, wants to walk around, more for c-channel frame. going to replace that with a shorter version. Really just to hold things in position until chain connected anyway. After assembly, drove 620 miles freeway and highway, really noticed the difference so well worth the money and effort. Only thing I really don't like is the chain hooks, when trying to tension chain slips off unless choosing link that allows hook to start about 1/2 way up so really can't get as many links hooked as I would like. Instructions say to lift hitch, hook chains, and then lower but last trailer could just grab at the bottom of the swing with cheater bar and crank them up. Better have a really big wrench set to install. Beefy hardware. My 1/2" rattle gun was not up to the job, needed my 3/4" drive stuff. 2-5/16" Ball came pre-torqued.

Great Customer Support with quick online responses!!
I have a new RAM1500 Limited with Air suspension that I tow a 30 foot Airstream trailer with. So, I needed to get an equalizer hitch for it. After searching and reading a lot of reviews and forums, I decided on this CURT hitch. So, I ordered and I installed it. Here is what I found: 1. This s a very well made hitch and has clear directions, which is an enormous plus!!! You will also need to reference your vehicle manual for trailer towing to ensure you also cover any requirements that your vehicle has. Since my truck has air suspension, there are VERY specific things you need to do in addition to the instructions provided by CURT. 2. CURT is quick to answer questions and they provide clear answers. 3. You will absolutely need a Torque wrench to install this!!!!! Do NOT just guess!!!!!!! 4. Ensure you follow lubrication instructions!!! If you do, it is easy to use and quiet!! 5. Remember, torsion bars distribute weight onto tow vehicle, ball height adjusts trailer level, and ball angle adjusts torsion bar height above ground for correct torsion. Chain adjustment adjusts degree of weight transfer. I just completed a 1000 mile trip with the trailer and I could not be happier with the hitch! I would recommend it.

Curt has an excellent you-tube video showing exactly how to install and level. This has made a huge difference in how well our rig tows, reduces tire wear, and overall improves our road safety 500%. Worth every penny.

This product came very fast . It was well packaged, very good quality and very easy to install . I checked around rv locations and the very same product was much more expensive. I would recommend this product.

This makes an incredible towing difference. Holds the vehicle level and reduces any sway. If you're a Novice like myself Don't tow without one.. Safety is number 1 when towing I totally recommend this product.

Came with a few bumps and bruises, but all looks well other than that. I’ve towed with weight distribution hitches before and am very excited to own one of my own now.
