RV Weight Distributing Hitch
When pulling your travel trailer does the steering on the
tow vehicle ever feel loose and does not respond like it
normally does? This can happen because there is too much tongue
weight from the trailer pressing down on the hitch causing the
front of your vehicle to lose traction, which in turn affects
the steering. If you dont have a Weight Distribution Hitch you
need to go talk to an RV dealer about getting one.
Weight distribution hitches are designed to distribute the
trailers tongue weight to the axles on the tow vehicle and the
axles on the trailer. If you already have a weight distribution
hitch and you still have problems with the tow vehicle
steering, it's probably not adjusted properly. Again, take it
to an RV dealer and have it checked out.
