Weight-distribution hitch (8K–10K)
Technical documents
The CURT deep-drop weight distribution hitch is a specialized towing system that improves vehicle and trailer control by leveling the trailer and distributing tongue weight more evenly across the axles. This model is specially designed for taller, lifted trucks, with an adjustable shank offering up to 7" of drop and 10-1/2" of rise. Weight distribution hitches are commonly used with travel trailers and campers, but can also be used with other heavy loads. This CURT WD hitch features a 2" x 2" deep-drop shank and is compatible with most Class 3, 4, and 5 trailer hitches (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest weight rating of any towing component). This round-bar weight distribution hitch features a robust formed head and square spring bars made from forged steel. It offers a gross trailer weight capacity of up to 10,000 lb and a tongue weight capacity of 1,000 lb. It also includes hookup brackets, spring-loaded safety chains, and a pin and clip. To protect this hitch from scratches, chips, rust, and UV damage, it also comes with a durable black powder coat finish. A trailer ball must be purchased separately.
