Excellent weight distribution and sway control

This is one of the most expensive weight distribution hitches, but it's worth it. Or Casper drives great and once installed it's easy to hook it up. Instructions are ready to follow. Before installing, make sure you have the necessary tools.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Very expensive

Perfect for dealing with trailer vibration

I have had a trailer vibration problem for years and have spent thousands fixing it, adjusting the load on my caravan and doing everything that was recommended. In the end that fixed everything. I should have started with this hook. I had a round bar clutch with friction surge control that just didn't work well with surges.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not bad

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The clutch works great. 7 years towing tourist trailers and I have.

Trailer hitch works great. 7 years towing caravans and I have tried 2 other hitches and nothing compares. I would love to leave 5 stars but my package was missing the safety clips needed to attach the chain clamps. I've found some small nuts and bolts that work so far, but ordering clips costs me another $10.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Some little things

Best hitch I've ever had, no need to look any further.

This is by far the best machine you can buy at this price point. And honestly I can't imagine it could get much better no matter how much you pay. I tow an 11,000 #27 foot toy dump truck (boxed) and 32 feet total with a 2008 Tundra. This eliminates about 95% of all sway. You can roll down the freeway with a finger on the wheel if you want most of the time. It's also great that the design allows you to keep everything connected when you need to reverse and cut tight corners. I recommend this to…

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Big improvement! on tow gear and winches

I switched to this rig from our DrawTite round bar rig with anti-swing friction control. Less hooking and unhooking and works great! I don't notice any wobble as much as with a friction anti-wobble. The instructions for the weight distribution system are separate from the Dual Cam Anti-Sway and are a bit confusing. I had to search articles and forums online to get it right. After a little tweak to the dual camera, it works great. I don't understand why Reese did this, but her directions are…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Quality

GREAT. The only WD/Sway Control setting you need.

What a night and day difference compared to the original system of rods and friction glides that the motor home dealer fitted and sent to our home! I tow a trailer that pushes 8500-8800 pounds. with Tundra Crew Max 4x4 2013. I used to wince when I looked in my side mirror and saw a trailer go by or when the wind picked up. Everything is fine with this baby, nothing wobbles or wobbles! It is important that the chains distribute the weight correctly. If you don't have enough, you won't let the…

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Worth the price, nice anti-friction system upgrade.

I bought this to replace my double friction rods and WD system. Installation was pretty easy for me, I read all the instructions and watched a lot of installation videos. I had to purchase a step drill to make the correct size holes for the cam arm mounts. Be careful not to make these holes too big, mine was spot on but I would have liked a little tighter. Also, ALWAYS tighten the self-tapping screws as specified. I wasn't sure if I was doing it right thinking they would just scrape and twist…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly dented
