Weight Distribution Replacement Solution Reese Mini 350 with Lost Components

Question

Question:

Help..... I have used a Reese mini 350 LL/sway hitch for many years to pull my Coleman camper. The 350 was designed to accommodate the side mounted tongue jack on the Colemans. On my last outing, I lost the passenger side leveling bar. As this model is no longer stocked, I have been able to find parts. Enquiries to Reese have gone unanswered. Can anyone on the Etrailer team recommend a course of action. The side mount jack seems to be the biggest hurdle. Thanks for any advice you can provide.

Since that WD system has been discontinued for so long all of the replacement parts for it are gone. At least from us. It would be a real challenge but maybe elsewhere there is a company that still has them. I would recommend going with an all new system at this point like with the Fastway part # FA92-00-0450 which is rated for up to 450 lbs of tongue weight.

I would be happy to! Weight distribution systems are selected based off of tongue weight which is typically between 10% - 15% of your trailer's total weight. This would put yours between 250 lbs - 375 lbs. There's really only a couple of…
