What is the Weight of the Head in the Curt TruTrack 8k Weight Distribution System
Question:
What is the weight of the ball-mount part of this hitch? Reviews of the higher capacity Curt WD hitches say those weight 60lbs, which might bee a bit heavy for me to handle even with your cool hitch carrier.

I've got some good news! The head of the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System # C17499 only weighs about 32-1/2lbs, so it's going to be quite a bit lighter than the heavier duty WD systems. The TruTrack systems do not come with a hitch ball included so you would need one with a 1-1/4" shank diameter like the # A-90 (2" hitch ball) or # 19286 (2-5/16" hitch ball) to complete the setup.
