Do the Spring Bars Need Removed To Back Up with the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System
Question:
hi, is it best to remove the sway bars when backing into my campsite using this hitch? I am backing up a 4500 pound travel trailer with my ram truck… Just in case you need that bit of information. Thanks so much!

In regards to the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control part # FA92-00-0800, you will not need to remove the spring bars to back up unless you need to do so at a sharp angle. In which case, you would want to go ahead and disengage the spring bars so you don't run into issues with binding and damaging the weight distribution head.
