Weight distribution hitch supply and installation in Geelong

Achieve safer and more stable towing with a weight distribution hitch installed by Geelong Trailers and Caravans. A weight distribution hitch is a device designed to evenly distribute the weight of your caravan or trailer across all axles, reducing sway and improving handling for a smoother, more controlled ride.

How It Works:

A weight distribution hitch uses spring bars and brackets to redistribute the trailer’s weight from the rear axle of the tow vehicle to both the front axle of the tow vehicle and the caravan’s axles. This not only keeps the vehicle’s headlights properly aligned but also prevents the rear of the vehicle from sagging. By levelling the tow vehicle and trailer, the hitch reduces sway, enhances handling, and improves braking performance.

Benefits of installing a weight distribution hitch include:

Improved Handling: By levelling the tow vehicle and trailer, a weight distribution hitch reduces sway and significantly improves handling, ensuring a safer and more comfortable ride.
Better Braking: With more even weight distribution, the tow vehicle’s brakes can work more effectively, offering increased control and safety.
Increased Safety: Proper weight distribution helps maintain stability, reducing the risk of trailer sway and other handling issues, making your journeys more stress-free.

Proper installation and adjustment are crucial. Our caravan weight hitch installation is tailored to your specific caravan or trailer, ensuring that your vehicle remains level and stable, even when carrying heavy loads. This involves adjusting the height of the hitch head and the tension of the spring bars to distribute weight evenly without overloading either the tow vehicle or the trailer.

Caravan and Trailer Weight Distribution Solutions:

A caravan weight distribution hitch is essential, particularly when towing with smaller vehicles. Our team specialises in fitting caravan weight hitches in Geelong, providing a solution that reduces strain on your tow vehicle and prevents the front of your vehicle from lifting. By keeping your caravan balanced, you’ll enjoy better control, reduced sway, and increased braking performance.

In addition to caravans, we also offer trailer weight redistribution. Whether you’re towing a boat, horse float, or heavy trailer, we ensure that your weight distribution hitch is properly installed and adjusted for optimal performance. With our professional installation, you can tow with confidence, knowing that your load is evenly distributed, and your vehicle is performing at its best.

After researching local businesses specialising in caravan servicing we settled on Geelong Trailers and Caravans to do our new caravan’s first service. It turned out to be an excellent choice. Communication was outstanding from the time of booking to drop off and pick up of our pride and joy. I spoke with both Tony and Graham throughout the process and their attention to detail, caravan knowledge and focus on customer satisfaction were outstanding. I thought that pricing was very reasonable and will be a return customer for sure! I have no hesitation recommending Geelong Trailers and Caravans for all your caravan servicing needs.
