A new adventure -- ezlift WDh

Went to attach the chain from one of the bars to the WDH bracket on the trailer today and the whole WDH bracket came off the trailer. Had to resecure it before hitting the road this am and am hoping it will stay on until we get home.

I Will be purchasing a new WDH when I get home. any suggestions??? Thx

Equil-i-zer brand sway control WDH
10,000 lbs unit should be perfect.
Equil-i-zer and the Dual-Cam systems are typically stated as the best bang-for-the-buck.

I suggest that you double check the original setup. I've been using the eazlift W.D.H. for more than 12,000 miles with nary a problem. I've got pics of my professional installation if that would help.

Thx for the offer. Please pm your set up.

I have about 60 connects/disconnects in the last 12 months and over 12,000 miles on it as well.
