Average Customer Rating:  4.1 out of 5 stars   (310 Customer Reviews)

Just don’t. Ordered 6/5. It is now 6/23 and I don’t have a complete hitch. Three attempts at shipping have produced two hitches that were reboxed by UPS enroute and missing parts and documentation, and the third shipment (hardware) was in perfect shape, yet failed to include all of the missing hardware that was invoiced. CS absolutely ignored comment about reimbursement for multiple trips to UPS hub to deal with damaged packages and missing parts.
Added pic of attempt #2. Evidently, if it’s got no staples, it’s not the etrailer box.

I am very sorry that this order for the weight distribution system has been so difficult. I will have our Customer Service team reach out again to make sure that you have everything that you need.



by:

I love the WD Hitch. Installation was extremely easy but would have been easier with a second person. Fits nicely on the Jeep Gladiator Sport w/o having to remove any of the reinforced bumper. Setup and removal is probably the hardest part, just because of its weigh. The receiver must weigh 60 pounds or so. Towing is amazing and had made long travel much more enjoyable and less stressful. the squat and raise in the front end was terrible until I mounted this hitch. I know my trailer isn't that heavy and only have about 500 pounds tongue weight, but this has made all the difference and I feel much safer when traveling with my family.

Tow Vehicle: 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport (No tow package)
Trailer: 2022 Forest River Rockwood 2318 esp Tent Trailer



by:

Package was received on time and UPS delivered it intact and box was in good shape even though it was very heavy. It took a couple days until I got to open it for install on my truck and trailer. I was disappointed to find that the fasteners were missing for installation of brackets on trailer frame.



by:

Exactly as advertised. My trailer runs very smooth and no swaying at all. Even in top speed of 70mph. Easy to install and store.



by:

My order was delivered in a dilapidated box that looked like it had been used several times. It was taped together to keep it from falling apart. Negative 5 stars for delivery.



by:

works great on my 2021 Frontier, towing a 3500-4000 lb camper. Have run 2300 miles this season, sometimes in really windy conditions, and the hitch makes all the drama go away. Wish I'd had a similar hitch on my previous larger truck.



by:

Worked great a bit noisy overall great product



by:

Parts were missing not sure if this was an oversight by etrailier or Reese. etrailer ordered the the missing part and is shipping priority delivery.

I haven’t assembled or installed yet. etrailier customer service is EXCELLENT. They help me find the best WDSC for my needs. Amy was was very helpful, professional and personable on ordering and shipping the missing parts.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ETRAILIER!



by:

When I went to the front door the cardboard box the hitch was in was really squished and broke open. All the parts were there I guess as there was no instruction or parts listed was there, it makes it really hard for me to figure out how to install it properly. So I guess I will have to find a camper trailer store n order to install it.

Hope it won't cost to much to properly install it. Any help would be greatly appreciate it very much.

I will let you know,when I Tow



by:

Thank you very much for all the help. I received the shank today. You people are the best.



by:

Arrived not even in a box. Etrailer was not helpful in getting replacement parts. Took days to even hear back. Ended up just having to ship it back, now my trip is delayed trying to find a weight distribution hitch local

Missing all hardware. Box taped to hell and arrived open

Oh my! Thank you letting us know. Customer Service will be in touch so that we can have the hardware sent out as quickly as possible.



by:

This product takes a lot of the sway out of the trailer for better towing . Would purchase it again .



by:

Installed easily, trailer traveled real tight behind vehicle. I was more than impressed. However, package was very beat up upon arrival.



by:

I'm pulling a 21 foot camper trailer with a 1/2 ton pickup and it does help reduce sway and rocking motions. The instructions could be better written and easier to understand. The box it was shipped in was destroyed and it was repackaged in ups boxes before I received it and no parts were missing.



by:

Great pricing, lightning fast shipping, and competent/courteous sales support. Very satisfied with both the weight distribution and 2-point sway control functionality. Many, many thanks!



by:

Worked better than I expected it to. Leveled camper and caravan nicely. Pulls level and smooth at low and high speed. One warning though be very careful with the spring arms. The first time I disconnected it the van was at an angle to the camper. The first side came off easy. I didn't expect (and should have) the other side to be different, but it was apparently under a lot of pre-load and when it snapped off the bracket it slammed to the side and broke my shin bone. My stupid so don't blame the hitch.



by:

Works great, makes a huge difference. Used on a 2014 Tacoma pulling a ~5k travel trailer. Without the weight distribution hitch, the truck was bobbing all over the place and it was exhausting to drive. Now the truck sits level and tows much more smoothly.

I took away one star because the method of installing/removing the bars is not as good as I've seen on other hitches. Unless you wear gloves, your hands will get all greasy and there are a bunch of loose parts that you have to keep track of. It works, but definitely not as slick as some of the (pricier) options out there.

So sorry to hear that! How frustrating! I am glad to see that our customer service team has already been in touch with you, and are working to get the parts sent out.

SEEMS TO BE GOOD QUALITY, AND THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE GREAT ,



by:

Instillation took a few hours and I had to buy a socket to change the ball to the 2 inch I needed. That aside, this unit works beautifully, no squat, no sway, and easy hook up.



by:

The packaging container was delivered damaged. The contents needs to be inspected and verified against the bill of materials

Customer Service will reach out to you. I have emailed the parts list to you.



by:

For the price, this has been a good hitch. The setup is pretty simple as long as you're a little mechanically inclined and have the tools for the job. Placement of the round bars and their removal each trip is simple. We have had zero issues with trailer sway and have no sag in the rear of tow vehicle. Very confident towing with this hitch. The only drawback is that the hitch will eat a significant portion of your vehicle's payload if you have a smaller tow vehicle. Just do the math and don't overload.



by:

The product seems good haven't used it yet but the packaging flat out sucks,box was destroyed and the ups guy asked if I wanted to just send it back.I hope all the parts are there.and I will have to paint it.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System For A 5,000 Pound 2015 Evergreen Ascend Trailer
    If the unloaded tongue weight of your 2015 Evergreen Ascend trailer is around 300 pounds, I don't think the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution # RE44FR is going to be the best option for you. This will have a minimum tongue weight rating of 600 pounds, which sounds like you would need to load the front of your trailer very heavy to get to. With that said, it sounds like the better option will be the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution # RE34FR. This will have a tongue weight range...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System That can be Backed Up With?
    If you are looking for an easy to use system, I highly suggest the Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # RP66559. This does not require anything to be disconnected when backing up and is rated from 500 pounds at the minimum and 1,000 pounds at the maximum.

  • Troubleshooting Height Adjustment for Reese Weight Distribution System
    The Reese Weight Distribution System w Shank - Round Bar - 6,000 lbs GTW, 600 lbs TW # RE34FR is 49911 you referenced. It definitely doesn't sound right that there is more than 4 inches of difference from the base of the hitch ball when inverting your weight distribution shank with closest settings. I'm attaching an article to assist. If you need something that allows more of that middle adjustment, I recommend the Curt Adjustable Weight Distribution Shank - 8" # C17100.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System for a 3,500 lbs Travel Trailer
    Since you are towing with a 2015 Toyota Sienna I strongly recommended using a weight distribution system. Weight distribution systems should be used when the trailer being towed weighs 50% or more of the vehicles weight. It looks like your 2014 Jayco Jay Feather 16 XRB has a gross weight of 3,500 lbs which means your tongue weight will be between 350 lbs and 525 lbs. I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control item # EQ37060ET. This system has a tongue...

  • Weight Distribution Hitch for 2020 Ford Ranger Towing 3,100 lb Trailer
    More than likely the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution # RE34FR will work for your trailer. You want to choose a weight distribution hitch based on the fully loaded tongue weight of your setup, including the weight of anything behind the rear axle in your 2020 Ford Ranger. Ideally, you want to measure this with a scale like the # e99044. The tongue weight range of the # RE34FR is 200-600 lbs. As long as your tongue weight is within this range it will work well for you.

  • Adding Additional Sway Control To a Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution
    Yes, the Reese Friction Sway Control Kit # 83660 can be used with the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution # RE34FR. You may need to move the brackets back on the weight distribution hitch to get the ball for the sway control at its 24" center hitch to sway ball. You will be able to do this since the weight distribution hangers are located 24-1/2" to 27-1/2" back from the hitch center. Do remember that you will need to remove the friction sway hitch before backing up or driving on...

  • Selecting The Correct Weight Distribution Hitch For a 2024 Keystone Hideout Sport 175BH
    I see what you mean with the additional support bracket below the frame on your 2024 Keystone Hideout Sport 175BH travel trailer. I'm glad you reached out to us Peter as that is going to limit you on what you can use. With that additional component it does not look like you are going to be able to use the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution # RE34FR you found. You can verify this by measuring back and seeing if there is room for the frame brackets to sit 24-1/2" to 27-1/2" behind the...

  • Weight Distribution System Recommendation for a 3,000 lb Trailer
    The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use. Typically tongue weight is 10-15...

  • Will Reese RE34FR Round Bar Weight Distribution System Allow Trailer to Be Backed Up
    The Reese # RE34FR Weight Distribution kit can be used while backing your trailer, but if you need to make sharper turns that could possibly cause the trailer to jackknife, you'll want to remove the spring bars before backing the trailer. The owner's manual lists no prohibitions regarding using a weight distribution hitch, so the # RE34FR system you looked at would certainly be compatible with your 2021 Honda Pilot. The system is designed for trailers with fully loaded and ready to tow...

  • The Difference Between A Weight Distribution System and Weight Distribution System With Sway Control
    The Reese Weight Distribution System w Shank - Round Bar part # RE34FR does not utilize friction sway control. It is simply a weight distribution system that will redistribute the weight of your setup with the spring bars which will help to reduce sway but does not have active sway control at the bracket locations. A system like the Reese WDS RE34FR will help to eliminate rear sag of the tow vehicle and distribute the weight but it will not do much for sway. If you are experiencing sway...

  • Weight Distribution Recommendation for 2003 Trail Light by R-Vision

  • Economical Weight Distribution Hitch for 2002 Toyota Tundra Towing 3,500 Pound Camper
    For a weight distribution hitch that won't break the bank I recommend the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution w Sway Control # RE34FR. When choosing a WDH you want to make sure you choose the right system based on your tongue weight. Tongue weight is typically 10-15% of your loaded trailer weight. Assuming 3,500 lbs you're looking at 350-525 lbs of tongue weight. The Reese # RE34FR has a tongue weight range of 200-600 lbs so you will fall nicely in the middle of the range. However,...

  • Is There A 10 Hole Adjustment Weight Distribution Shank Compatible W/ Reese Pro Round Bar RE34FR?
    The Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution Hitch # RE34FR you were looking at cannot be ordered with a different shank, but it is compatible with the Curt Welded Weight Distribution Shank 7" - 10 Hole Adjustment # C17123 which gives the rise and drop adjustment you mentioned needing. I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Do You Carry The Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution 49911?
    The Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution # RE34FR is the Reese item number 49911. We have to give items different numbers from the manufacturers since we carry so many different items from several different manufacturers. Often times it is more expensive to replace a few parts than an entire weight distribution system. I know that doesn't make sense but it is typical especially with parts which are manufactured overseas.
