Yes, it's an Equal-I-zer!
Are we talking the Equil-i-zer brand? Many people confuse this and call weight distributing hitches equilizers. You don't have to remove bars on an Equil-i-zer brand hitch to reverse. Doing that refers to the separate friction type sway bars that can bottom out if you turn too sharply.
With Equal-I-zer, you have to keep the sway bars on when you're hitched.
?? The Equil-i-zer has spring arms, not sway bars. The spring arms act to prevent sway at the same time. You don't have to keep the spring arms on when you're hitched, only when towing if you want the weight distribution and sway control function. I used my hitch head without spring bars all the time.
