Question:

Can I purchase heavier bars for an EQ37100ET separately if needed? Looking to get a bigger travel trailer in the near future and currently have the EQ37100ET. Using on 2017 Silverado 1500 LTZ Z1 Thanks

Yes, you can get distribution bars with a Tongue Weight between 1,000 lbs and 1,400 lbs and a Gross Towing Weight up to 14,000 lbs. Replacement Spring Bars for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems # EQ90-01-1499 is what I recommend.

However with Equalizer, you also need a head that rated for that weight too. Replacement Head for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems,1,400 lbs TW Item # EQ90-02-1400 will complete your replacement system.
