• How Can I Determie Which Replacement Spring Bars I Need for My Equal-i-zer WDS
  The Replacement Spring Bar for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems # EQ90-02-0699 could potentially work however without knowing what system you currently have I won't be able to say for certain. The easiest way to find out what you need is to just measure the inside hole on the head where the spring bars would go. If you measure 1", then you'd want # EQ90-01-0499, if you measure 1 1/4" then you'd want # EQ90-01-0699, if you measure 1 3/8" then you'd want # EQ90-01-1099, and finally...

• What Spring Bars for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution are Needed for Keystone Springdale 1750RD
  If the weight of the trailer is over half the weight of the tow vehicle then you'll need a weight distribution system. The rear suspension on the Ram also uses coil springs which are great but they'll sag more than the comparable leaf springs on a Ford or Chevy. Furthermore, the lighter trailers are typically the ones with sway control problems so I do think a weight distribution system is a good idea for you. That said, an overrated one won't do you any good so you'll want to replace the...

• Are 1000 lb Rated Equal-i-zer Spring Bars Interchangeable with 600 lb Bars
  I am not sure what you mean by too much spring action. If you are wanting to downgrade the system by using lower rated spring bars, you would do so because the current bars are NOT providing enough spring. In any event, my Equal-i-zer representative tells me that the weight distribution head assembly of the 600 lb unit and the 1000 lb unit are different enough so that the bars are unfortunately not interchangeable, because the sockets that the spring bars insert into are smaller on the...

• Can 1,000 Lb Spring Bars be Swapped out with 600 Lb Spring Bars on a Equal-i-zer System
  For starters, I would not use the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System part # EQ37100ET that you have now as it is rated for a total tongue weight of 600 lbs - 1,000 lbs. The tongue weight of your 1967 Holiday Rambler is likely around 380 lbs - 570 lbs which means the above system is not going to perform well for you. Now I do have an option for you but the Replacement Spring Bars part # EQ90-01-0699 which are rated for a total tongue weight of 200 lbs - 600 lbs cannot be used with...

• How To Add More Tailgate Clearance To A Weight Distribution Hitch
  There aren't longer spring bars to increase your tailgate clearance but you can replace the shank of your WDH to gain some additional clearance. A standard shank on an Equal-i-zer WDH is about 12" in length so you could swap to the 18" # EQ90-02-4600 or # EQ90-02-4500 for an additional 6" of clearance. You won't be able to get a full extra 12" of clearance but this should help a bit. If you have a different weight distribution hitch let me know so I can make sure the shank is compatible with it.

• Can Different Equal-i-zer Spring Bars Be Used With The Same Head
  Because of the way the head and spring bars are designed the bars will only fit the head of the same rating. I know most systems will let you swap out the bars, and that would certainly be ideal. If you want to switch to the 6k bars # EQ90-01-0699 then you will need to replace the head with the # EQ90-02-0600 as well. The brackets and the shank will work for all systems so there is no need to replace those.

• How to Change Weight Rating of Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Hitch
  Weight distribution systems like the Equal-i-zer # EQ37100ET really do need to be matched to the trailer's actual fully-loaded tongue weight (TW). Using a 1000-lb system with a smaller travel trailer like your R-Pod can result in jumpy and unpredictable handling from the trailer and this is not recommended. The good news is that it is easy to change the rated capacity of the system by changing out just the two spring bars; you do not need to replace the whole setup. You can replace the...

• Should 6,000 lb Equal-i-zer System be Used for Trailer with 550 lb Loaded Tongue Weight
