This looks similar to a dealer installed hitch(different brand) except thiers has a sway bar add on. Does this need some sort of a sway bar add on?

Hello Jason, No, the sway bar in built into the system, it is a anti-sway bar. It is a bit noisy until broken in after use. We think it is an excellent product. This is our second purchase. The first one was stolen, alone with our truck last February. :O( Stuff happens. Cheers!

No, it does not need a sway bar add on since the Equalizer hitch is a two-in-one: weight distribution and sway bar. You do not have to remove the sway bar in order to back up like a regular sway bar. Very good product.

It does not need a sway bar. The bars that are part of the hitch will work to lessen the sway.

You do not need an add on sway bar. This system includes weight distribution and sway control in one

Nope. The hitch has bars pinned to it. They run out to the contact points installed on the trailer. The bars are not attached, just slide in the bracket. Works great. Noisy until broken in after use.

No. That's the good thing about Equalizer that the bars are both the weight distribution AND anti sway since they are in constant friction with the L-brackets. You probably have seen something similar to shown below. That system is not as beneficial IMO as the chains are only holding the weight up but do nothing for the side-to-side motion which is why you have the friction damper shown in the bottom of the pic.Pro Series 49903 Complete Weight Distribution Kit

It is a sway bar. The down force method of the bar sliding against the same bracket used to hold the bar for weight distribution helps prevent the sway.

The receiver is not included with this hitch. My SUV already had the receiver, but you might check with your local Uhaul dealer to install a hitch.

I would get on to the company if I were you. We have attached our hitch and it is working fine but it has been on there for a long time and we do not have the instructions anymore. See if they can give you something clearer.

You will need a Driving/ Fog Light Mounting Bar Mounting Kit. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you or if you have any questions. Sincerely, Briana

I don't really think it did. Because I didn't have to remove the tie rods. But I did take it and got a front end alignment . I also replaced the sway bar links the alignment was only 50 bucks. I saved like 60 bucks by getting these parts on amazon verse the part store so I figured it would be worth it.

Well, I googled it and it looks like you have a 2" hitch from what I can see so it will. You could make a call to a dealer to confirm.

No Shawn. There isn't any need for sway bar extensions. And the transfer case spacers are only necessary on select models. You'll know when you look at the angle of the driveshaft. That's what they are for. Too correct the angle of the shafts. They come in the kit. It isn't something extra to buy. Your entire suspension geometry is lowered so the sway bar links will be fine.

No it will not, I have a factory installed hitch on mine, no problems, not sure about aftermarket hitches though, but I think it will be OK.

I had a hitch already installed on mine. I removed it and used the hitch on the bumper instead. You have to remove all the bolts that hold the hitch in place anyway when you install the new bumper.

Mine came complete with everything needed to install the hitch. Very easy to install. You will need to purchase the ball mount and ball. Hope this helps.

Yes- it is the actual Toyota brand hitch. I use it with an equalization hitch and sway bar on my 21 foot forest river Mini-Light camper and it works great, with no issues. I also use it with my snowmobile trailer which I also use to haul ATVs, a riding lawnmower and what ever else I might need to move or haul.

Hello: No the receiver is just as pictured. You would need to add a hitch pin along with the 2" hitch of you choice. Hope that helps, by the way I have purchased two of these items and they fit my 2014 JKs perfectly.

The mounting bracket, which they call a "drawbar", came with it. Remove two bolts below the seat, install the provided shoulder bolts in their place. The "drawbar" then fits into the hitch hole and hooks over the new bolts.

you need something to bolt it onto. If you have a hole in your bumper for a hitch ball, then you can bolt it thru that. You will need to go somewhere and purchase a bolt, nut, washer, and lock washer for the installation. I bolted mine onto a receiver hitch bar, in the place where the ball would be mounted. If you don't get it really tight, it can tend to swivel a bit, but I use tie downs to stop any lateral movement...

I'm not sure. I have a hatchback and its shifts a little under the weight so I just had a tow hitch installed

you will need the tow package. The rear guide fits into slots, one on each side of the tow bar. Iam pleased with theitem which makes hitching a lot easier. hope this helps.

Honestly I'm not sure, but this is not a good hitch. It is very sloppy and I wish I would have just stepped up to a better quality. I bought a new truck and traded off my old hitch with the old truck. Big mistake. The hitch is constantly banging around and is actually a little scary to pull with. Will be getting different one when I can afford it.
