Recommended Noise Reduction Jackets for Equal-I-zer Weight Distribution Systems
Question:
I plan on purchasing the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control - 6,000 lbs GTW, 600 lbs TW - EQ37060ET in the near future. Not sure if I should also purchase the Sway Bracket Jackets for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems - EQ95-01-5150 OR the Equal-i-zer High-Performance Lubricant - EQ91-00-4250. Do you have a preference? I have read that both of these products may reduce the effectiveness of the system but maybe you have a thought which product is the better choice? Thank you

Expert Reply:
The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control # EQ37060ET is a great system for totally loaded tongue weights between 200 and 600 lbs. If you are concerned about noise, the Sway Bracket Jackets for Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems - Qty 2 # EQ95-01-5150 are the better route to go than the lubricant. The jackets will slowly wear and will still give you some friction (although reduced) and will better control the noise as well.
Because these systems are designed for metal on metal friction for sway control, using these jackets or the lubricant # EQ91-00-4250 can diminish the effectiveness of the integrated sway control, but either of these options will reduce the sound.
