Any experience with weight distribution hitches?

[ohanacreek]

I bet we paid less for our Ram than he paid for the Ford,obviously money is no object considering all of the add ons required.Our Ram came with a tow hitch, bumper is never used.

Ford come with the hitch, bumper is rated

Whenever anyone else is willing to throw down and pitch in on anything I buy.. feel free to give your input, until then, if you don’t have anything useful to add or funny to say. Close you’re cocksucker before i moderately fill it!

I don’t give a f*** about dodges or fords or gas vs diesel... I just don’t f***ing care. I’m 33 years old and doing now, what some twice my age can’t, AND all my s*** is paid for. So... I’ll continue to make the choices I make, because thus far. It’s all working out pretty well!!

Awesome. Hey congrats on the trailer. Enjoy your build, I did. Just some advice, insulate it. I didn't on mine but definitely should have.

Yep! @JTW broke his own Golden Rule by replying. I just do this to piss off people, HA!

LOL!!!! As I was reading JTW's response above, THAT is exactly what popped into my pointy head hahaha!!

Ya beat me to it!

Hey JTW..you've got a late model F150, right? Does it have the built in trailer brake? If so, that system works awesome. It's tied into the ASR/ABS etc.. and handles a lot of swing and sway all by itself.

Good point.

Yeah.. I just have to figure out how

 

[mjn]

My cargo trailer is an 8.5 X 7 X 20, and all I have in it is my Pioneer, but unlike JTW's mine is a steel frame. I never use my weight dist hitch at all. I hook up and roll 75-80 with no fuss whatsoever. Not sure I'd have the same level of confidence if I had a half ton, but I've pulled it on some pretty windy days, and never felt a dam thing.
Again.. if I was going to pull my 25' Arctic Fox travel trailer, the weighs close to 7K I'd probably use the bars.

Nope.. just getting my f*** you’s out early.

Well since you got @ohanacreek the other day, I figured I'd help him out. ( he's not good with combacks) shh don't tell him.

I do and it does.. I think it’s mostly just the light trailer moving.

It’s great with no wind.. 80-85 no problem... everything pulls good. But toss in heavy winds and big trucks and it pushes and pulls. I haven’t pulled it loaded yet so I dunno how that will be. I suspect much better.

I agree on not owing for toys, everything I've got is paid for, except our home and that is getting taken care of, we mow our own yard, do all the landscaping and plant a garden.

I am not the b**** asking for suggestions on a bumper pull enclosed for a half ton,you are. If you won't listen to reason then you deserve what you get. All my stuff is also paid for and I have been there and done that, so quit getting on here and crying if you don't want help.
