Towing a heavier trailer can push the back of your truck down and the front up, reducing steering control and headlight aim exactly when you need both. This collection covers the hardware that corrects that: weight distribution systems that transfer load back across all four tires, plus the sway control components that keep a trailer tracking straight at highway speed.

The GEN-Y Weight Distribution Shank lets you add distribution capability to an existing GEN-Y HITCH hitch rated for 16K, 21K, or 32K towing. The Stabilizer Kit is recommended once your drop hitch position exceeds 12.5", helping keep the connection rigid at longer drop lengths where flex becomes more noticeable.

For sway specifically, the Sway Control Head adds single or dual sway control directly to a GEN-Y HITCH drop hitch, and the Sway Control Arm is the individual component if you need a replacement or are adding a second arm for dual sway control.

Not sure whether your setup needs weight distribution, sway control, or both? As a rule of thumb, if your trailer's tongue weight is close to or over what your truck's rear axle is rated for, weight distribution is worth adding. Call our team at (574) 218-6363 with your tongue weight and we'll help you figure out the right combination.
