Is Curt Trailer Hitch C99FR For Toyota Highlander Compatible With Weight Distribution

Question:

I bought a Class III hitch from you for my Toyota Highlander XLE V6 Gas véhicule. I am now shopping for a weight distribution hitch with sway control. Do you know if this can be installed on my tow vehicle?

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C99FR on your Toyota Highlander is not compatible with weight distribution, but you can still add sway control. What you can do is add friction sway control, and you'll also need a bracket:

- Curt Friction Sway Control for Weight Distribution Systems # 17200

- Reese Sway-Control Bracket for 2" Ball Mounts # RP26003

The # 17200 says "for weight distribution systems" but can also be used without them. It will attach to your trailer frame on one side, and you'll mount the sway-control bracket over your ball mount, giving you the attachment point for the sway control unit's hitch ball.
