Do Round or Trunnion Bar Weight Distribution Systems Offer Better Ground Clearance
Question:
Im pulling a 3-horse Titan bumper pull trailer with a 2014 F150 Supercab. What would give me the most ground clearance, reunion bars, or round bars?
asked by: Craig
Expert Reply:
A weight distribution system with trunnion bars would definitely offer more ground clearance at the trailer coupler because the bars don't extend below the weight distribution head like they do on round bar systems.
If you'd care to reply with the fully loaded and ready to tow tongue weight of your horse trailer, I'd be happy recommend a weight distribution system for you.
I've linked you to an FAQ article that explains how to determine your trailer's tongue weight, as well as to an article that explains how weight distribution works.
