Reese Straitline Hitch dual sway cam broke

[bullyus]

I have a 1200 lb. Reese Strailine hitch which has the dual cam sway control. The hitch is about six years old. Last weeken I pulled into a campground and when I started unhooking and one of the threaded rods on the cam broke in two.... I couldn't believe my eyes. I was imagining what would have happened if it broke going down the highway. Any one ever seen this problem before. Where the shaft broke it looks like it was only holding in the center. Thanks for any feedback....Bullyus

Nothing would have happened. I towed our 32.5' travel trailer all over the southeast for a year without the sway control arms on our Reese HP. Give Reese a call. I'd bet lunch they'll send you a new one.
