For all these naysayers I'm sorry you are not able to understand the reasons on why and what something like the "Hitch Vice" does for you as I tried an explain as best I could. If you have no "rattle" or "wiggle" good for you and not sure why you are even posting here, but if you do and want to solve your issue then I will still recommend the "Hitch Vice" as the best method to solve this issue. One reason IMO that the "Hitch Vice" was not meant for WDH systems is that originally it had a 5K trailer wt rating, but it has worked well on my almost 8K GVWR trailer since I started using it back in 2008. It will obviously have a greater postive impact when used in non WDH trailer applications and things like bike/storage hitch mounted accessories and my PERSONAL HANDS ON EXPERIENCE has proven it for me to be effective also on my Equal-i-zer WDH system.

I am curious though. Do you tighten the hitch vise before, or after tensioning the EQUALIZER hitch bars.
And whatever your answer is.... WHY?
