How do you properly use weight distribution with a Hensley?

Weight distribution with a Hensley is easy. The weight distribution aspect of the hitch is completely separate from the sway elimination aspect of the hitch.

Even if you forgot to pull up the weight distribution, your trailer will NEVER sway.

When you set up your weight distribution, you are looking for a couple things. You want to minimize the bouncing between your truck and trailer, and you want to have good, firm,positive steering.

Read your owner’s manual carefully for instructions on first setting up your weight distribution.   If you use an air lift system in your truck, inflate those first to where you like them to be. Then use the weight distribution to get a good ride.

Will a bigger truck reduce trailer sway?

Understanding Trailer Sway

Trailer sway, the side-to-side motion that can occur while towing, is caused by factors such as wind, road conditions, weight distribution, and hitch configuration. Addressing these elements directly, rather than depending on vehicle size alone, is essential for effective sway control.

Weight Distribution and Balance

Stability begins with proper weight distribution inside the trailer. Ideally, 10-15% of the trailer’s weight should rest on the hitch. A weight distribution hitch can help achieve this balance and enhance towing stability.

Choosing the Right Hitch for Ultimate Control

The quality and setup of your hitch play a crucial role in preventing sway. Opting for a sway elimination hitch, such as the Hensley Arrow®, manages both sway control and weight distribution, giving you a safer, smoother towing experience.

No need for a specialized truck to tow safely! Just ensure you’re within your vehicle’s towing limits, and with a Hensley Arrow, you can eliminate trailer sway and enjoy a worry-free adventure.
