As mentioned, if it's an Equalizer hitch then it ISN'T an EQUAL-I-ZER 4 way system!!!
Also look at the Reese SC system. Very, very similar design to the 4 way system, but the SC uses a replaceable brake pad like material that the bars ride on instead of just the metal on metal. The Reese hitch head (same for both the Dual Cam and SC) does offer a little more fine tuning for the wd bar adjustment vs the Equal-I-Zer system, but you can't go wrong with any of them!!!
The Reese systems do allow changing out the wd bars for different rated bars for easy trailer changes. The Equal-I-Zer system does not allow that unfortunately.

What do you want to know...Equal-i-zer brand hitch is widely used and well proven. It has been around a long time. It incorporates both weight distribution and sway control (basically friction).
My wife hated ours because it was so noisy...it pops, snaps, creaks and screeches.
Good hitch, can't really go wrong with one once it's set up correctly.
Also look at Reece Dual Cam and Blue Ox Sway Pro.
