THE FUNCTION OF A WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION HITCH
Provides better control of your vehicle and trailer by applying leverage across the trailer tongue and tow vehicle for heavier loads to be distributed more evenly on the trailer wheels and tow vehicle. This even distribution allows for a more stable ride and better control for braking and steering.

Make sure to have the correct LENGTH, RISE and DROP required when selecting the proper shank for your weight distribution hitch. Use the diagram below to help you.
