Q & A
-
What is the purpose of a Weight Distribution Hitch?
Weight Distribution Hitches prevent the rear of a tow vehicle from sagging when the weight of the caravan or trailer is added to the tow ball. In this way the front of the tow vehicle and the rear of the caravan or trailer does not lift.
-
Are Weight Distribution Hitches the same as anti-sway devices?
No, weight distribution hitches (WDH's) are not anti-sway devices. Some WDH's do however reduce sway, but only those that specify that this is the case.
-
How do I know what the maximum tow ball weig
The max tow ball weight is usually indicated on the product listing and it is calculated as 10% of the gross trailer mass (GTM). The use of a Weight Distribution Hitch does NOT increase the max tow ball capacity.
-
How do I choose a Weight Distribution Hitch for my vehicle?
You need to take the following into consideration when selecting a WDH:
- How much weight your caravan puts on your tow ball
- How much room you have on the A-frame to mount the WDH
- The types of brakes your caravan or trailer has
- The height of your tow ball
Read the product information carefully for each WDH you are considering to ensure they meet all your requirements.
-
When do I use a trunnion / straight bar hitch and when would I rather opt for a round bar hitch?
It depends on the depth of the A-frame and where the coupling is situated. The trunnion hitch is designed for an underslung coupling and will provide more ground clearance. The round bar hitch is designed for coupling above the tow bar and provides more clearance from the A-frame.
-
Can I still use a Weight Distribution Hitch if I have electric brakes on my caravan?
Yes, you can. However, it is important to note that the WDH will inhibit the manual override function of the electric brakes. You are still able to use a WDH, but you need to allow for harder braking.
-
What are the most effective Weight Distribution Hitches?
The Fastway e2 and Andersen WD Sway Control Hitches are the safest and finest pro-active sway control equipment on the market. These are the only Weight Distribution Hitches on the market that come with built-in Sway Control.
-
Is there anything more I can buy to help with swaying?
Weight Distribution can assist, but alone will not prevent the motion of sway occurring while towing at speed. Typically you will need to purchase additional Anti-sway bars or dampening arms to your Weight Distribution Hitch to prevent sway. These combinations can become quite clunky and cumbersome to use. The FASTWAY e2 and Andersen WD Sway Control Hitches come with integrated Sway Control as standard.
-
Can I change the height of the shank?
Yes, the shank height may be adjusted if necessary.
-
Is it possible to reverse my caravan while using the Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch?
Yes, even if the Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch is fitted, you can still reverse your caravan with perfect control.
-
I have this 4" WDH and I now require the 8", can I use any shank?
You will need to use the specific Andersen shank, which we can supply upon request.
