Does anyone have experience with either the Hensley Arrow Hitch or The Equalizer Hitch?

by anonymous

Does anyone have experience with either the Hensley Arrow Hitch or The Equalizer Hitch? The Hensley is supposed to completely eliminate sway, regardless of the cause, but I have heard it is bulky and hard to use. We are buying a 29ft aluminum travel trailer.

ANSWER Greetings thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.

Congratulations on your new Travel Trailer. I will start off by telling you that I have not personally used either one of the anti sway trailer hitch systems you are asking about. So I would be unable to give you any useful feedback on them. I am going to open this up to our visitors. If any of you have used either one of these anti sway trailer hitches, please leave a comment by clicking on the add a comment link near the bottom of this page.

Hopefully you will get some good feedback from our visitors. I wish you many happy travels in your new Travel Trailer.

Hensley Hitch the best
by: John

I pulled my first 30 footer with a Drawtite for one season only then I bought a Hensley . On a trip to Florida I step out of the van a E350 Ford and was almost blown over by the strong wind and was unaware the wind was even blowing. Have pulled with this hitch over 100,000 miles and if I had to go back to the old hitch I would just quit camping. By the way I just returned from pulling our Montana travel trailer over 6000 miles. The trip Michigan to Florida to Midland,Texas to South Dakota back to Michigan through the upper peninsula them back to lower Michigan. HAPPY TRAVELING JOHN

one product that lives up to it's claims.
by: Ron Hyde

I have a Holiday Rambler 32-foot Alumalite trailer. When I first pulled the trailer I had the typical weight distribution system with sway bar system that came with my trailer. After a few extended trips I realized that the system just didn?t give me the control I needed, especially in high winds or when large trucks passed me on the interstate or going down long grades. I would be so tense that by the end of the day I was worn out from the stress.

I decided I needed somthing better if I entended to ravel very much. After a lot of shopping I came across the Hensley Arrow system. I have to admit I was put off by what seemed to be a high price at the time but since I was planning on doing full time travel in the near future I finally decided it was worth the investment. Well I?ll just say this was the best investment I ever made. The Hensley system does everything they claim. No more sway, I mean none and when I go down lone grades I don?t have that feeling I might jackknife if I go to fast, also I no longer worry about those 18 wheelers because they have no effect on my control at all.

Towing my trailer became enjoyable and more importantly for the first time I really felt I had full control at all times. Once the initial setup is made hitching up becomes much easier than the typical WD system.

I would not hesitate to buy a used system if price is prohibitive. This product is built like a tank and should last a lifetime.

PS. I?m just a RV-er like you, I don?t sell

The Arrow is the Best PERIOD!
by: Anonymous

I've owned 3 Squeek-qual-i-zers and now a Hensley Arrow. The Arrow is hands down a superior product when it comes to sway control. I two a 33' 6800 TT with a 1/2 ton SUV, the EQ was OK - barely. The Hensley made towing a pleasure again. It's more money yes. But what is your family's safety worth?

Equalizer hitch
by: Anonymous

I have the equalizer hitch and tow a 34 foot travel trailer by Forest River with an Ford F250, the hitch is great no sway problems at all and is very easy to use.
