Weight Distribution Backing Up
I have seen on the internet somewhere saying to REMOVE weight distribution when backing RV in. Is this true?

I was backing into my steep driveway. I am thinking I may just remove the bars in that case only. Otherwise I hear all the hmmm and hawww of the linkages.
If having to backup a steep incline I would make an exception and remove the bars in that case.
Removing the bars may prevent you dragging the rear of the trailer on the drive when backing in. Just make sure you won't drag the hitch shank as a result.
Only other thing to concern yourself with when turning VERY tight is if you have a trunnion bar system, the lug of the bar (part that goes in hitch) hitting the trailer frame in very, very tight turns... There is an extensive thread about the Reese Dual Cam system somewhere here on the forum, and it is explained about the possibility of the lug hitting.
