Im towing around 10k and would like to get a WD hitch, Ive done some online searching but there are sooooo many to choose from. I figure Reese or drawtite are decent companys to get one from? My budget is around 300 bucks, can anyone throw me a link to somthing decent?
My generic round-bar hitch has worked great. There's a place online that sells them for $180 from time to time, posted in a thread on here but I can't find it.
I put one on my 32 foot trailer and all my issues went away not sway a great equallizer. there are a couple of others that work as well also, but I can attest to this one as great. I got mine on ebay for $200 and my boy was able to pick it up to save shipping.
It's a decent unit, comes with all the brackets ect that you need. The only downside is you can't adjust it to have much drop. You can buy a drop shank for it but they are $90 just on their own. Here's the thread on here about the hitch: http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=930487
It worked great with a 6k trailer behind a Tacoma loaded to 5k. Truck was slightly beyond its weight limits but with the wd hitch and good trailer brakes I let my sister drive shifts in it going cross country and she had never hauled a trailer before.
There's quite a selection with prices on their site.
I love this online site for all things towing. Bought a hub for my old car hauler that had the Ford bolt pattern. Cheapest I found, perfect fit, and came with all the bearings and lug nuts and such.
I bought my 1200lb easy-lift round bar with sway cont of craigslist for $75.00...and I have seen them all the time for $125.00-$175.00
