Setting Up Weight Distribution on Vehicle with Self Leveling Suspension 2018 Dodge Durango
Question:
I bought my WD setup from etrailer. I recently bought a 2018 Dodge Durango with self leveling system. I have looked for the correct procedure to hook up my travel trailer using my Reese WD hitch. Could you provide me with the correct procedure to solve my issue? Thank you

Expert Reply:
When using a weight distribution system on a vehicle that has self-leveling suspension like your 2018 Dodge Durango the trick is to set the tongue weight on the hitch ball so that the suspension works to level the vehicle and then go ahead and setup the weight distribution system per the manufacturer instructions.
