CURT Weight Distribution Hitch (MPN: 17500)

Advanced sway control and easy adjustments for optimal towing performance.

The CURT Weight Distribution Hitch is designed to enhance towing stability and safety by distributing trailer tongue weight across all axles of the vehicle-trailer combination. Utilizing a pair of spring bars, this hitch connects to the trailer frame with heavy-duty, adjustable support brackets that provide lateral and vertical stability. The integrated sway control arms actively resist side-to-side movement, ensuring better alignment and control during travel.

Featuring a unique spring and cam system, the CURT hitch builds up pressure to counteract sway and relaxes for smooth turns. Its durable construction includes welded heads and forged steel spring bars, ensuring longevity and reliability. The powder-coated finish and chrome-plated components enhance durability, making it suitable for various towing conditions.

Setup is streamlined with interlocking nuts and six preset holes for precise tilt adjustments, eliminating the guesswork often associated with traditional weight distribution hitches. The 12-inch adjustable shank fits standard 2-inch receiver openings, making it a versatile choice for different trailers. This hitch is engineered for ease of use, allowing for quick adjustments without the need for disassembly.
