I have that hitch, though I'm currently using an Equal-i-zer. Good luck finding a snap ring pliers beefy enough to handle that snap ring! I finally ended up taking the whole assembly to a local transmission shop that was kind enough to do it for me for free--on two separate occasions. Even they were cussin' it a bit.

I love my Anderson hitch, but it's just not adequate when I'm towing with my short wheelbase Land Cruiser.

Thanks for the feedback. I am going to be pulling a 3000 lb pop up with my Minivan. I will need a a weight distribution hitch for my rig. I really want to use this Andersen WD hitch but I think I need to go with a standard WD hitch. I spoke with Andersen and they admitted that they do not do as good a job at WD as a spring bar hitch.

They said that they control bounce better and makes for a smoother ride.

I think its a great hitch for a HD truck that really doesn't need much WD but does need some and needs some sway control. i may be speaking out of turn, but its a $450.00 gamble I am not willing to take at this point.

Thanks!
