Will Weight Distribution And Sway Control Need To Be Adjusted Going From A Dodge Ram 1500 To 2500
Question:
I recently upgraded from a dodge ram 1500 to a 2500 do I need to adjust my weight distrabution hitch with dual cam sway?

Expert Reply:
Yes, if you installed the Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution Hitch System, # 66074, on your 2010 Dodge Ram 2500, then you will need to adjust your weight distribution hitch and the dual cam sway control for that vehicle.
The weight distribution hitch and dual cam sway control has to be fit to that particular vehicle, by measuring the height on the new vehicle to get the right shank adjustment, to adjust the tilt of the head, and adjusting the spring bars for that fitment.
You will need to adjust it using the same instructions that you used when installing the system on your Dodge Ram 1500.
I am sending a link to the installation instructions for the part # 66074 and a link to the instructions for the Dual Cam Sway Control, # 26002.
I am also sending a video link to the weight distribution and sway control being installed on a Dodge Ram.
