Draw Tite Hitches - Receiver Hitches
Draw-Tite Equalizer/Weight Distributing Hitches
A weight-distributing hitch system applies leverage for heavier loads such as 350 lbs. tongue weight or higher. Weight distributing hitches are also called as equalizer hitches at these hitches distribute trailer tongue weight to all tow vehicle and trailer wheels. It offers a more level ride, greater steering and brake control and enhances towing safety. The addition of a friction sway control also dampens sway caused by traffic and crosswinds and contributes positively to tow vehicle and trailer stability.
Equalizer/Weight-distributing hitches are used with a receiver hitch and special parts that distribute the tongue weight among all tow vehicle and trailer axles.
