🔧 EAZ LIFT 48053 1000lbs Elite Bent Bar Weight Distribution Hitch: Adjustable Ball Mount & Shank Included Review

That's a great thing! Our local RV store had the exact same unit for sale but $102 more. I ordered the £1000 version although the next lighter version would have worked fine but hey both are the same price and one day I will be buying a larger camper. The only drawback was the printed instructions that came with the device. No big deal, the company has a great YouTube video that makes installation super easy.

Works great! I used this to tow a 24 foot trailer and then a 24 foot enclosed car transporter with my 1/2 ton pickup. This is of great importance. I would also suggest adding a recoil bar. I had to stop by an RV dealer after heading out on an overland trip and bought it for more than double the price of the Revain. In addition, when the tow hitch is installed, it gives specific torque specifications for different bolts. Go to the Auto Zone, they will lend you a torque wrench for free.

I feel very confident towing my camper with this hitch system. As long as the attachment points on the trailer tongue are clear of obstructions, it's really easy. Unfortunately I had to make some modifications, I had to sand the LP bottle stand and weld it back slightly forward from the original position. if you are not good at welding or know someone who just measure before buying. Relatively easy to install and set up. or take it to your local dealer/workshop. Might be a bit fiddly when it…

The hardest and most tedious part of installing this WDH round handlebar is setting the correct angle on the adjustable ball mount. Trial and error to get it where it needs to be. And trial and error involves removing all the hardware, resetting the handle, and then going back and reinstalling all the hardware. I was lucky and hit the target from the second shot. My truck sits well and handles day and night as we don't use a WDH on our 24ft camper. To get it right you'll need a ball end wrench…

My only regret is that I didn't buy it from the start. I'm towing an 18 foot trailer with a Dodge 3500 (a much larger tractor than required) and didn't think I needed a hitch to distribute the weight. After purchasing an expensive high power receiver and ball, I found that while the trailer pulls well, it also causes a lot of truck driving problems, especially when the road surface was bumpy or bumpy. I was looking at a used Eaz Lift clutch but found parts were missing. Then I checked out the…

I have a 745 lb empty trailer and I'm towing it with a Ford Expedition. Also, I put all my tools and supplies in the front locker. Of course we can talk about 200 pounds overweight. So I calculated almost 1000 pounds of tongue weight. I installed this and measured everything according to the instructions, which you really should be following! While the Expedition pulls fairly well and can handle that weight fairly well (and probably maxes out at 1,000 pounds), it still only sagged due to its…

There are many WDHs out there but I settled on this one based on other reviews, its price and EAZ-LIFT's history as a quality company. My setup setup looks like this. Tractor: 2016 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4x4 with dealer installed tow package giving it a towing capacity of 6400lb (max tow capacity 640lb) Trailer: 2019 Wolf Pup (3291lb UVW, 430lb hitch weight) I knew I had a WDH as need as soon as I dropped the trailer onto my truck's stock ball hitch and saw the rear bumper come off about four…

I bought this hitch because it didn't come with a stem (which is clearly stated in the description for those of you who write reviews about it) because I have one needed longer shaft than usually comes with these glitches. And of course there was no ball (also clearly stated), because everyone needs different ball sizes. I use it on my regular 95 Tacoma with the cab with leaf attachment and 16 foot tandem firewood trailer. . This works better than I expected. With brakes on both axles and this…

If you're towing a trailer that's more than 50% the weight of the tractor, you need it. For me it was the right tool for towing a 7000 pound tandem axle cargo trailer with my yukon xl k1500. I foolishly towed it 300 miles on a standard clutch and it was a harrowing experience to say the least. I had this problem on the way back and I hardly knew she was there. No squatting, no rocking, and the steering axis felt noticeably more planted. With a load sharing hitch, my receiver is rated for 12,000
