Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is there a difference between Weight Carrying and Weight Distribution?
A: Yes. Weight Carrying is where all of the tongue weight of the trailer is carried directly on the rear of the tow vehicle and on the hitch. Weight Distribution is determined by using a weight distributing hitch, and some or all of the tongue weight is evenly distributed throughout, from the rear to the front of the tow vehicle.
Q: Are safety chains required to pull a trailer?
A: Yes, many states require the use of safety chains to pull a trailer. Be sure to check the laws in your state or contact your dealer.
Q: How often should I lubricate the ball on my vehicle’s trailer hitch?
A: Be sure to lubricate the hitch ball monthly. This will create less friction and allow the trailer to turn smoothly.
Q: Can a hitch be welded to the frame of the vehicle?
A: No. A hitch should never be permanently fixed to the vehicle unless specified by the manufacturer.
