Outstanding Sway Control

I tow a 32ft 7200 pound TT with a 2015 Ford Expedition EL with a HD tow package and the Husky Center line TS makes towing a breeze. The setup was not hard took me less than an hour, it leveled out the TT and TV wonderfully. Then on my first road trip in Colorado on the I25 I kept waiting for that sway that comes from being passed by a Semi Truck but it never came. It felt just like being passed without the TT behind me, in fact if not for the TT in my mirrors I would not have known it was there, I was able to relax and just drive. I was able to travel at 75 MPH no problem except for the crazy low millage at that speed. I did not experience any white knuckle driving and the built in sway control from the Expedition never had to activate. I previous towed with the chain and bar style WDH, night and day difference. For the price I think the Husky Center line TS is unbeatable. Will update if anything changes over time After 18 month the husky centerline still works great, I have been caught in winds gusting to 70mph and the wind pushed the TV and trailer together (still had to reduce speed significantly) During my last trip 1100 miles I noticed the hich was rubbing really hard against the head assebly see picture when backing into tight camping spaces so I have started disconnecting the bars before manuvering into my site and it seams to reduce the friction (most of the friction comes when there is a steep pitch up and turning combined). Works great never any sway when being passed on the road by semi trucks usually keep speed at 70 when road conditions are appropriate. Update after 2 1/2 years I experienced some sever sway while traveling across southern Colorado. When I stopped and checked the passenger side bolt of the head assembly had come loose to the point it moved freely with no pressure. I had tools so I tightened the bolt and went on with my trip with no other issues. Be sure to check the head assembly is torqued properly to avoid the issues I experienced. I have over 5k miles towing with the husky centerline now but I did not like the sway induced by wind, passing trucks, ect when the bolt came loose.

Great weight distribution hitch.

This weight distribution hitch is not just a great value, it is a great hitch. I am pulling a 31 ft 8,500 lb travel trailer with my 12,000 rated half ton truck. The trailer came with a quality Reese chain type hitch which did a good job equilizing the weight and leveling the truck. However the setup swayed significantly at freeway speeds. I have been pulling trailers since I could drive, so I am well versed in sway and the feel of a trailer behind a tow vehicle. This setup required two hands firm on wheel, no distractions, while traveling at 68 mph with no weather or traffic. Include a passing semi and I found myself taking US highways instead of the interstate to keep my speeds below 60. After much reaserch on adding Reese trailer sway friction bars, and other types of sway control that costs in excess of $500-750, I decided on the Huskey Centerline TS. Like most of the more expensive systems, the Centerline TS includes sway control as an organic part of the system. Chain type hitches do not and require the addition of friction bar(s). The Centerline TS price of around $300 makes it a very inexpensive option compared to hitches that cost twice as much. It even is a value when comparing to chain type hitches which start at about $200, and quickly climb above $300 as you add sway control or opt for a more premium brand. Installation was straightforward and took me about 40 min by myself. The directions where comprehensive and accurate. This hitch is bolt on with no frame drilling required (unlike the more expensive dual-cam setup from Reese that also inlcides sway control). The only issue with the install is needing to torque two bolts on the hitch to 380 pound feet. I fit everything myself at the trailer, then drove the truck to a local auto shop that had the required extra large torque wrench. Most auto shops won't have this tool, shops that also work on busses or big rigs will have the required capability. 5 min and a handshake later the hitch was good to go. Driving with the Centerline TS compared to the chain style is night and day. The truck and trailer where very stable and moved together. I could set my cruise control at 72 and drive stress free. This is compared to never using the cruise control with the chain setup and limiting my speed to under 68. The truck also bounces less with the Centerline TS compared to the chain hitch. Passing semi trucks is straight forward. There is still some push from the wind resistance of the semi, but it moves the whole truck-trailer together opposed to forcing the trailer into a tail wag. In all, I am incredibly impressed with the hitch and cannot recommend it enough. The difference in driving the same trailer with the same truck is almost the same as comparing no equilizer hitch to stepping up to the chain setup. The only drawback I have with this hitch is the hookup process. You have to alleviate the weight on the hitch before you can disconnect the spring bars. This involves using the trailer tongue jack to raise the trailer tongue and truck rear together. You have to lift fairly high and it can be challenging to get it high enough depending on how level the ground is. I did a similar proceedure with the old weight distribution hitch but the Centerline TS requires a higher lift. With all that said, it is a minor inconvenience, not a deal breaker by any means. And it is only slightly more inconvenient than the chain style of weight distribution hitch. All told, I would absolutely buy this product again and would recommend it to anybody who A. Is buying their first hitch for a trailer that requires weight distribution for their vehicle. Or B. Is unhappy with the sway when using the cheaper chain style hitch and looking to upgrade. A final note, many people think that weight distribution hitches are only for large trailers. When in fact they make hitches for smaller crossovers and cars to tow small trailers as well. A trailer that a pickup wouldn't even know is back there may cause significant sag on the rear axle of a smaller vehicle. The Centerline TS has different stregth spring bars for different weight trailers for this reason. Make sure you get a the kit that is rated for your trailer weight. (Update Oct 19) I have had this hitch for 6 months and have put nearly 3000 miles on it. This included going taking US 37 over the Appalachian mountains, Urban driving in traffic, and some plains driving in significant cross wind. The hitch has held up well and I still recommend it without reservation.

Wont tow without it again!

Just went on a 1000+ mile trip with this hitch pulling a 10K lb 28ft toy huller. This thing is fantastic! I was skeptical of how much this could improve towing, but my skepticism was put to rest. I will never pull my trailer without it again. It eliminated sway, kept the truck and trailer level, and made handling substantially better. You do not have to remove it for backing up or bad weather like some systems. It is easy to connect to the trailer and includes a special tool that helps with attaching the sway bars. I would recommend this product 100%. This is a killer price compared to other similar non-chain systems.

Dollar for dollar, the best hitch on the market

Can't say enough about this hitch. The seller shipped it very quickly, and were prompt to respond to questions I had regarding shipping options and speeds. Box was lined inside with lauan which helped to keep the pieces from blowing through the box. That's a big thing, I'm a FedEx driver and I can attest that these things usually blow their boxes to pieces. On to the hitch itself. I was down to this and the Equalizer, but couldn't justify the extra $250 or so. And honestly, I think the Centerline is possibly the better put together of the two. The finish on this thing is pretty slick looking and should stand the test of time. I took my tools with me when we picked up our new travel trailer and insisted on setting it up myself. (Probably a good thing since no one in the service department had seen one of these before and they didn't seem particularly mechanically inclined anyway.) I leveled the trailer, took my measurements, set the pitch with the recommended amount of washers for my 6" trailer frame, installed the brackets at the short end of specs to avoid dropping the bars in tight turns, hooked up, raised everything with the tongue jack, hooked up the bars and let her down easy. Re-checked the fender heights of my truck, dead on. I'm pretty familiar with weight distribution hitches, so I probably could have figured out everything on my own and gotten everything on spec eventually, but the manual for this hitch is something special. I've never installed one of these and had it perfect on the first shot. Took less than 40 minutes. The best part, however, is the performance. I tow a 37 foot, 8100lb triple slide bunkhouse with an 06 F150. With this hitch, there is NO sag, didn't even need to air up my Ride Rites over the daily 8 psi. And cruising down the freeway at 65, my trailer doesn't so much as wiggle, let alone push my truck around. Passing semis, meh, whatever. Crosswinds...oh well. Color me impressed. I really can't recommend this hitch highly enough.

AMAZING product - first-time hauler

Long winded review, but worth the read especially for someone new to hauling a travel trailer like me. I bought this product for my first experience pulling a trailer based on reviews I read. My trip was 1800 miles from south Florida to Minnesota. Thru mountains, rough roads, road work and a very strong severe storm. My wife was behind me in our car and said the entire way, she didn’t see an inch of sway in the trailer. Thru the winds of the severe storm, it felt like the truck and trailer were one solid unit. The trailer did not sway side to side from the truck at all. I can’t imagine any product working as well as this one did. For my first ever experience hauling a trailer, I was at ease by the end of the first day, knowing the trailer was going to follow the truck as if it were a solid attached part of the truck itself. I also accidentally ended up on a tiny Kentucky backroad with very steep hills and hairpin corners! I did have to tighten the lower center set screw twice on the trip, which is expected for that length of trip and on intermittently bumpy roads. Trailer: Forest River Cherokee 304bs limited. Hauling all our household items and clothing as well as a full fresh tank - around 9000# in all. I would highly suggest this product to ANYONE! I am very happy that this was the product that I decided on.

Works great with Expedition

I'm using this on my 2017 Ford Expedition EL, to tow my 28ft travel trailer. I previously used one of the bar and chain style hitches with my pickup truck but the soft independent suspension of the expedition required something different. I followed the installation instructions for setting the hitch height and when this baby is setup, I have only 1/2" drop in the rear suspension and zero rise in the front. Sway is newly non existent although putting the friction bars in and taking them out can sometimes be a chore as they are quite tight. Luckily I have a power tongue jack to raise the trailer and rear of the vehicle high enough to pry the bars on and off the trailer saddles. Don't lose the included pry bar tool, without it you would never be able to hitch up or unhitch because of the nature of how the weight/friction bars lock into the trailer frame saddles. No need to unhitch when reversing either, which is nice, and they don't make very much noise except when turning tightly.

friction sway control bar and have fought horrible sway with my camper

I have been using the traditional weight distribution system with spring bars with chains, friction sway control bar and have fought horrible sway with my camper. I have a 36’ camper that weighs about 10k loaded and I pull it with a 03 2500 Dodge diesel. My wife and I love our camper, but I was at the point of selling it and purchasing a 5th wheel, due to the sway. I saw an ad for the Husky centerline hitch, read a couple of reviews and decided to give it a try. What a huge difference! No more sway and excellent handling. With the other system, I could only drive about 60 mph tops, but with the Husky, I can travel 75 mph in windy conditions with no sway. If I could give this hitch more than 5 stars, I would. It is a little more trouble to hook up, but well worth it. I use an 8 ton hydraulic bottle jack to jack up the truck/hitch into the camper coupler to attach the spring bars and off we go. Our most recent trip was to Destin Florida from our home in Tennessee that is around 1,150 miles round trip. On the way to Destin, we drove through strong cross winds from Birmingham to Montgomery, Al. with no problems and for once, I was not worn out from driving.

Work Great! Easy to set up, quite and your can back up!

This is well made! The instructions are very good and useful. I have used this setup for over a week in upstate New York, we towed on both major highways and winding secondary roads was awesome! This comes with everything that you need to tow. The 2 5/16" ball is mounted all you have to do is set up the rest. There are Youtube videos that explain how it works! Nice

Great anti-sway and weight distribution setup for a good price.

I've spent a lot of time and money trying to figure out how to get the sway out of my setup when towing my 30' travel trailer. I bought a tongue scale which confirmed my torsion bars were undersized. I special ordered new torsion bars, but that didn't fix the issue. I spent a lot of time trying different friction settings on the anti-sway, I tried different numbers of chain links, and installed air bags on my tow vehicle. I finally decided to cut my losses and go with the Center Line TS based on the recommendation of one of my friends. I wish I would have done that sooner! With this hitch, other than the acceleration time of my truck, it would be pretty easy to forget I'm towing a long camper.

This works great. No sway from semis or wind

After a few adjustments. This works great. No sway from semis or wind. Great equalizing capabilities. Good price. Great shipping. Called company with a question. Great response. Overall great product and purchase experience.
