Full-size travel trailer or popup camper -- no matter what RV you're towing this weekend, getting to that destination safe and sound starts with the right hitch connection. CURT pin-style trunnion bar weight distribution hitches feature a highly secure leveling system and heavy-duty construction to let you Bring It with confidence.
The advantage of CURT pin-style WD hitches lies in the spring bar attachment method. Instead of using tabs or clips, this specialized hitch uses cast steel receiver brackets and wire-lock lynch pins to provide a sturdy connection point for the spring bars. The receiver brackets then mount onto the hitch head using thick receiver pins. This ensures a solid attachment and reduced wear for improved durability. The heavy-duty cast steel head provides a solid foundation and the trunnion-style spring bars are made from forged steel for optimum strength and tension on the load.
The CURT pin-style trunnion weight distribution hitch is designed to be highly adjustable to accommodate a variety of trailers and loads. With its adjustable shank, it mounts into any 2" x 2" receiver tube opening, making it an excellent companion for most class 3, class 4 and class 5 trailer hitches. For CURT Commercial Duty hitches and other class 5 hitches with a 2-1/2" receiver tube, the pin-style WD head is compatible with our replacement shank options. This hitch also uses snap-up hookup brackets and spring bar chains to allow for precise leveling.
This particular pin-style trunnion bar weight distribution hitch offers a towing capacity of 8,000 to 10,000 lbs. GTW and 800 to 1,000 lbs. TW. It also features a special head tilt adjustment feature for easy setup and fine tuning. To ensure longevity, even in the face of the harshest elements, it comes with a durable black carbide powder coat finish, giving you peace of mind for whatever you meet along the way.

I added this hitch to my 2002 Silverado 3500, because I carry a slide in camper and have a 24" extension on my hitch to tow my 26" enclosed car trailer. Works great!

I am able to easily and safely tow a 4400# travel trailer behind my 1/2 ton truck. I must admit it took me a couple trips to realize that greasing the ball and all the moving parts made all the difference in the world as far as smoothness and sound. I grew up towing small trailers for landscaping and just always thought those noises were part of the experience. The hitch is staunch and I have zero issues with its function, but more improtantly, I have zero issues when it comes to safety and peace of mind. I see it is discontinued, so I consider myself lucky to have gotten it when I did. Keep 'em greasy!

I use this hitch to tow my 24 foot car hauler. It was easy to set up and install. It works well.
