The innovative Reese Round Bar weight distribution is engineered to provide the features you expect in a weight distribution kit.
Designed to improve stability for added ride control and security
2-5/16" hitch ball - Preinstalled and torqued to proper specifications

Add a weight distributing system to provide a more level ride, greater steering and brake control. The differences are in construction materials, welding, manufacturing processes and hook-up. 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. Rather than merely supporting the trailer tongue weight (TW), weight-distributing hitches apply leverage between the towing vehicle and trailer causing the TW to be carried by all axles of the tow vehicle and trailer.
