What is Weight of Head and Shank of Fastway E2 Weight Distribution
Question:
I am concerned about the head assembly weight and shank on The E2 Fastway Equalizer Problem: I will need to remove the Head frequently when I arrive at the campground to put my bike rack onto my truck. I used to have the Blue OX sway pro and that head and shank was way too heavy. Send any other comparable suggestions in WDH

Expert Reply:
The head of the Fastway E2 weight distribution # FA92-00-0600 weighs 20 lbs and the shanks typically weigh around the same. So there's no way around having some weight to the systems but this should be considerably less than a Blue Ox Sway Pro as they have a lot more going on with them.
One product we carry that makes transporting the heads and shanks a little easier is the HitchGrip part # 303-HG-712 which grabs the head by the ball and gives you a handle that makes carrying the 40 lbs a little more comfortable. This is only available for the 2-5/16 inch ball size.
