WD hitch for Trailblazer towing 6000 lbs
We are replacing our Kodiak 24RBSL (gvwr 6000) which we have towed ~50,000 miles across US. The new TT is a Rockwood 2506S (gvwr 6280 lbs). We considered on purchasing a Silverado, but $30,000 s...

With the old WD, which had chains and slider-brake-bar for sway, it was a synch to adjust: simply pick a different link on the chain.
With the Equalizer it appears you have to screw around with washers, which involves removing bolts. That seems a pain.
On the Reese dual cam system it appears that you could adjust the WD by choosing a new link, but is that true? You also have to drill holes to mount which sucks.
Is there a WD-sway system out there that can easily be adjusted and doesn't require drilling?
Also, as far as the Trailblazer goes: it has a 5.3L V8 with 3.42 rear end, same drivetrain as a Silverado. It is also worth only $2500 on trade-in, and the most I was offered was a mere $3350 selling it myself. There is absolutely no reason not to continue trying to destroy it, something I have been trying real hard to do towing all these miles, but so far GM corporation is making me a very proud owner. The **** thing looks and runs like brand new.
