Fastway e2 - 8K round bars. I like it but then again I've never used any other brand. It's very similar in design to the Equalizer. I'm just glad they didn't install a chain system.

One thing I like is I don't have to remove the bars when backing into tight locations.

We have the Husky Center Line, works fine so far towing our SLX
265 RLSW with the Ram 1500. The WD/sway bars work fine.

We did upgrade to an electric tongue jack though, too much cranking all the way up and down to take tension off the bars.

Fastway E2 with 800 lb bars. I have not had any problems towing with this hitch. Previously I owned a Valley hitch with conventional round spring bars and no sway control. The 600 lb spring bars on that hitch were slighly overloaded but it worked nicely too.

bought the Harbor Freight Haul Master 1000 / 10,000 WDH

it is identical to a pro series, curt, reese of equil type/rating

it works. I took it out of the box in the store and really looked it over, and it appeared to be well built so I went with it.
No complaints

Would change my vote if I could. I'm using a Blue Ox Sway Pro these days instead of the Fastway E2.

We have an E2 the dealer sold us with the TT. Seems to work fine, although I have no other experience to compare it with. TV and TT sit level, no noticeable sway.

I had an EAZ-Lift and it was OK with the F-150 and Surveyor trailer we had. It was a rougher with the Ram pickup and much rougher with the new White Hawk trailer. I got the Blue Ox for under-slung couplers and it was a dramatic improvement.

EAZ-Lift came with my 24RKS. Very simple setup and seems to work well. Don't see it on the list, but I've seen a lot of folks using this brand on the road. I'm brand new to TT, so don't really know any better.

Mine is 10K GVW and 800 lb. hitch weight.

Weight distributing hitch Poll

We have a Husky Centerline WDH with 1000-1200 bars and pulling our 2016 White Hawk 27 DSRL with a 2013 F150 ecoboost screw with max tow. Once I got the WDH adjusted correctly Im very happy with it.

Propride 3p makes for a relaxing tow regardless of weather or road conditions and the extra turning radius when backing in is an added bonus. Worth every penny and would not tow our 28BHBE without it.

Curt trutrack and about to use equalizer L- bracket cause the curt bracket is small and weak. Otherwise Curt Trutrack works great on out 2500 miles trip.
