What is Difference Between Reese Steadi-Flex WD System #RP66560 vs #RP66559
Question:
What is the physical difference between the Reese WD system #RP66560 and #RP66559 ? Since the RP66560 system is rated for more weight, are the spring bars simply larger and more robust that the smaller rated RP66559 system ? Would the #RP66560 spring bars, fit on a #RP66559 set up ?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The difference between the Reese Steadi Flex part # RP66560 and # RP66559 is the spring bar tension between the two systems which is created by using stiffer bars that are the same dimensions. In theory yes you could take the bars from one system in use them in the head of the other system but worth mentioning is that the spring bars of either system are not available separately from Reese.
