Expert Reply:
My contact at Reese indicated that older weight distribution spring bars/trunnions will fit new replacement heads, such as Reese part # RP58167 (but new bars/trunnions will not fit older head assemblies). He noted that there may be a slightly different fit in the new head, but that your bars and trunnions are fully compatible with the replacement head.
A photo with key measurements is included for reference. One measurement not shown on the photo is the vertical distance between the two surfaces that will support the ends of the trunnions (you note that your trunnions are 4-1/4 inches tip to tip). That vertical distance on this replacement head is 4-1/2 inches, which will accommodate your 4-1/4 trunnions.
If you need replacement trunnions and pins, we offer part # 58097 for Reese spring bars rated between 1200 and 1700 lbs; and part # 58098 for bars rated between 600 and 800 lbs.
