The trunnion bars on your Reese Weight Distribution System, # RP66022, should not fall out of the head assembly when driving down the road or during normal turns. When backing the trailer or turning very sharply the bar could come loose especially if the spring bars are not very tight.

You should check the weight distribution head and trunnion head for damage and replace them if needed. You should also review your set-up instructions and make sure the attachment is correct.

I would also recommend that when you are maneuvering in tight situations that you remove the spring bars to keep from damaging the setup.

I am sending a link to the installation instructions on your Reese weight distribution system and a video link to the set-up instructions of the system.
