Should Second Weight Distribution System be Used with Second Trailer
Question:
Can you purchase individual components for this system to attach to a second trailer, or is purchase of a complete unit required for a second trailer?

Expert Reply:
Your best option will be a second weight distribution system like the Reese Steadi-Flex part # RP66559 if you need a system that has a tongue weight range of 500-1,000 lbs. Reason being is that every trailer needs to have a very specific amount of spring bar tension from the WD system for it to work properly. Trying to use one system between two trailers will get frustrating as you will constantly have to be adjusting spring bar tension. Having two systems means you can set each system up for the correct trailer and then when you need to tow it wouldn't be time consuming to set anything up.
