Short Arm Curt Weight Distribution System Spring Bar Length
Question:
I too have a Wedge Trailer, the specs state the Spring bar dimensions at 34-5/8inch long but Michael H states in a reply: The Curt bars are 28-3/8 inches long so the brackets would be mounted 24-3/8 inches back. I barely have 27inch of exposed frame to play with. Would you please confirm the exact length? Thanks

Expert Reply:
The Curt Short Arm weight distribution systems do have the shorter length spring bars that are 28-5/8 inches. The # C17500 uses the full length spring bars.
For the Short-Arm equivalent you would want the part # C17332 instead.
For a 2 inch ball you would want part # A-90 and for a 2-5/16 inch ball # 19286.
