Bought a used trailer with this hitch. Fast way factory video did not show the basic steps to put on and take of the sway bars, I found this video very helpful.
The wheel is for the hitch jack. It allows you to move the trailer around easily with the wheel. This hitch is rated for 6,000 lbs and 600lbs tongue weight.
That’s normal for these type of friction weight distribution hitches. The reason is the friction itself when turning. The arms are moving on the metal as you turn.
Do you have the model of that hitch? We have a 2016 Jayco 10sd and looking to put a distribution hitch on it as well. Doesn't look like the chain style types would work as it doesn't appear to have enough room by the propane tank, and winch etc. to install on the frame and lift it up and over etc
Was just curious more if it was the 94-00-0600 model or the 92-00-0600 model. I believe the 92 model has longer bars so probably just a matter of measuring and making sure it fits where it needs to go. One is also round bars the other trunnion
