Can Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System be Used in Slippery Weather Conditions
Question:
With reference to a previous answer regarding the Curt 17200 system, question-99692... If it is not recommended to utilize sway control when towing in slippery conditions - such as on wet, icy, or snow-covered roads or on loose gravel, would the Curt 17500 TrueTrack system not be recommended for towing in these conditions since the sway control cannot be adjusted or disabled?

Expert Reply:
The Curt TruTrack weight distribution system # C17500 does not have the same restrictions as bar-style sway control unit such as # 17200. Inclement weather will not be an issue and you will not have to remove the spring bars on the system if such weather were to occur while you are towing.
