Default Re: Weight Distribution Bars

Pete....a 1/2 ton pickup needs all the help it can get towing a box trailer.....I have used a Reese hitch for well over 20 years on various trucks and highly recommend this setup. Buy their Cam sway control with 1000lb bars........Your truck will benefit from taking the load off the hitch and the cam sway control will eliminate any sway issues......Your truck has smallish tires/ brakes and rear springs........the bars will help a lot. Put bigger tires on the truck and make sure the brakes are good on the truck and trailer. Towing is not so much about going.....it's more about stopping!....Go with Reese.....Dual Cam Sway and the big trunion style bars.......I have all the same stuff since the late 80's when I bought my first box trailer........

P.S. I raced Freddie Krawiec........in SS/JA class runoffs at the SummerNats in about 1981 or 1982......He won.....but I was out in front a good ways down track before he drove around me......and yes I did copy the paint secheme from your car but it was pretty common back then and lots of others had similar looking paint.......
