Husky Towing Round Bar Weight Distribution Hitch | 6K, 8K or 12K

Husky's Round Bar weight distribution hitch levels the tow vehicle and trailer so you get back steering control, braking and headlight aim. The open head design speeds installation and gives easy access to the ball shank, a raised ball platform adds coupler clearance, and a dual sway control platform lets you add a friction sway unit on either side. Spring bars are interchangeable left/right, and the head accepts bars of several ratings, so one head can serve more than one trailer. Black polyester finish resists rust and corrosion.

⚠️ Size to your trailer: choose the rating that covers your loaded gross trailer weight; tongue weight should be 10–15% of GTW. Ball not included on all models — confirm with us.
