Comparing Equalizer, Fastway e2, Reese Steadi-Flex and Reese SC Weight Distribution Systems
Question:
Im considering a weight distribution system. My tongue weight is 400 lbs. Your thoughts on Reese RP66151, Reese 66558, Fastway FA94-00-0600 and Equal-i-zer EQ37060ET. For Toyota Highlander SUV.

Expert Reply:
The Equalizer system part # EQ37060ET of the four that you mentioned would be the nicest/best setup to use.
The Equalizer systems are regarded by many as the nicest around and are a favorite among RVers. It has 4 points of friction sway control which work very well. 2 in the head and 2 at the hangers.
The e2 # FA94-00-0600 system is basically an entry level version of the Equalizer and wouldn't have as effective of a sway control system. It has two points of sway control at the hangers.
The Steadiflex part # RP66558 is another great system, it's really new though so we don't have as much feedback on it. So far people seem to like it though. It has 4 points of sway control.
The SC part # RP66151 is basically the entry level version of the Steadi-Flex and wouldn't be my first pick either. It has 2 points of sway control.
