weight distribution hitch opinion
my camper comes in with a tongue weight around 500 lbs. I notices 800-1200 being the common weight range for the smaller weight distribution hitches. In particular I notices http://www.princessauto.co...

I prefer to get my spring bars as close to the actual loaded tongue weight of the camper as possible. The reason is shock loading (not sure what the proper term is here) but as you go over bumps and dips in the road the spring bar tends to load and unload depending on the circumstance.
Remember we set our hitches up on a level ground but when we drive it's hardly ever level. A closely matched spring bar will give a better ride than a bar that is too stiff for the loaded tongue weight.
I also prefer round bar WD hitches...I like how they ride compared to my trunnion hitches.
Thanks!
