Weight Distribution Systems:

  • Towing without a Hayman Reese Weight Distribution System can cause unnerving trailer sway, reduced steering and braking responsiveness, less traction, and misaligned headlamps. Over time you may also notice a reduction in fuel economy and increased tire wear. Hayman Reese Weight Distribution Systems improve safety, handling, control, and comfort when towing.
  • When using a Weight Distribution System, the ball weight remains the same, however, the load is evenly distributed through the vehicle's chassis to all four wheels. It is important that the capacity of the Weight Distribution System is correctly chosen and that the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations are always followed.

Choosing the right Weight Distribution System for you:

  • To determine which Weight Distribution System is most suitable for you, first weigh your caravan, camper trailer or trailer ball weight. We recommend you use a Ball Weight Scale to do this. Most caravans, camper trailers or trailers manufactured in Australia have a ball weight of 10% of the laden weight. But always remember, you need to consider everything you put into the caravan, camper trailer, or trailer, including water, gas bottles, food, luggage, etc. as this will have a direct on your ball weight.
  • The laden weight is often underestimated in Australia and this can become a problem when trying to balance your caravan, camper trailer, or trailer and tow vehicle with equipment that is not up to the task. Once you have determined your ball weight, record it and retain it for easy review.
  • Now that you have your ball weight, use the chart below to determine the correct size of the Weight Distribution System required.

  • The Hayman Reese 800 lb Weight Distribution kit has been tried and tested for your tough Weight Distribution towing needs in Australia. This kit suits trailers that have a ball weight between 275 kg and 365 kg.

  • Both classic and standard Weight Distribution kits improve safety, handling, control, and comfort when towing. However, each kit has been specifically engineered for your individual needs.
  • Classic kits are best suited to trailers, camper trailers, and caravans that have a 4in high A-frame, or 5in and 6in high A-frames where the coupling is positioned at the bottom of the A-frame.
