Can I use the same WDH when I switch trucks

I am trading in my 2012 Chevy Silverado 1500 for a 2019 Ford F-150. They both have about the same towing capacity. Can I use my existing WDH with the new truck? Do I need to make any adjustments?

  • Certainly you can reuse it but it will most likely need to be adjusted. Search the brand/model and there is typically manufacturer instructions online. It's not usually very complicated.

  • I have done this.  The main issue will be the change in ball height.  Get this, I traded in my 2007 Tundra for my 2017 and the new one was higher.  I did have to reset but it didn't take long.  I have and Equalizer and the company has some very helpful steps to follow. 

  • I agree. Yes.  Most are fairly adjustable although you'll probably won't need to make changes.
