Can any Portion of Weight Distribution System be Reused when Upgrading to Strait Line Dual Cams
Question:
we have a KZ spree 261RKS. It came with a round bar WD system. We want to upgrade to a Reese Strait-line. Can I purchase the new bars and RP26002 from you ? I know you carry the RP66086 but I dont want to throw out my existing system if possible. Thx,

Helpful Expert Reply:
What weight distribution system do you have? Is it a Reese round bar system? If so there's a chance you could replace the spring bars with ones that have angled ends that would work with the # RP26002 but if you have a different brand the only thing you'll be able to reuse is the shank.
So in that case you would want the # RP66072 which comes with everything but the shank. The shanks of WD system brands are all made to the same specs thankfully so they can interchange pretty easily.
