Quality S is not a brand of weight distribution system we carry, so I cannot say if replacements that we have from other brands will fit properly, unfortunately. I was also unable to find any information about this brand.

With that said, the best recommendation I can make is to replace the system with a brand that is still being produced and has replacement parts readily and easily available. The Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # RP66084, as an example, can have literally any and every piece replaced and most parts can be sourced at local trailer supply shops/stores. This is also a system I recommend a lot as it does an extremely good job with sway control. Though on the expensive side, I do highly recommend it.

If you can send me the pictures you have, I can see if we have anything that will be close. But again, due to us not carrying the Quality S line, I cannot 100% guaranty the compatibility.

The Reese Replacement Lift Brackets with Handle # RP6637 will have no issue working with your Quality S weight distribution system and they will include everything you need for that. Replacing the balls for your friction sway control device is another story. There is a possibility that the Reese Replacement Ball for Friction Sway-Control System # RP58060 and Replacement Ball-Plate Assembly # RP58062 will work perfectly fine, but as these are different brands, I cannot say that for sure, unfortunately. With that said, I recommend replacing that whole part with the Reese Friction Sway Control Kit # 83660. This way there will be no doubts of everything working. I think this will be the better way to go.
