Length of Bars on Curt Short-Arm Weight Distribution System
Question:
I have a V-nose trailer, and have installed chain hangers to adapt a WD system. My problem is the length of the bars. I need shorter bars, and was looking at the Curt short bar setup. What is the length of these?

The Curt Short-Arm Weight Distribution Systems have trunnion bars which measure 28-3/8 inches, according to the manufacturer. These are pretty common on V-nose trailers, and come with a couple of different tongue weight options. I'll go ahead and list those out below so you can choose the right one:
- Curt Short-Arm Weight Distribution System with Shank - Trunnion Bar - 10,000 lbs GTW, 1,000 lbs TW # C17332
- Curt Short-Arm Weight Distribution System with Shank - Trunnion Bar - 15,000 lbs GTW, 1,500 lbs TW # C17333
Both of these systems come with everything you need for installation except the hitch ball; for that you will need the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # 19286.
