Overview
Blue Ox builds this SwayPro hitch to spread trailer tongue load across the axles of the tow vehicle and the trailer. The shank goes into a receiver, and the body is finished in powder coat.
Blue Ox targets heavy trailers with a high towing rating and sway control in the product name. The listing is vague on contents and gives no tongue weight rating, which matters when matching a hitch to a trailer.
Who it's for
A trailer owner towing near the upper end of the rating can use the weight distributing design to level the ride. Buyers who need exact tongue weight limits, drop figures or a full parts list should confirm them with Blue Ox.
Pros and cons
- High maximum towing rating
- Weight distributing design
- Powder coated alloy steel
- Seven hole shank pattern
- Tongue weight rating not listed
- Bars and brackets not itemized
- Heavy to handle
- Warranty is a short contact window
Performance notes
Weight distribution shifts part of the tongue load forward and back so the whole rig rides level. The listing gives no bar rating, drop figure or tongue weight limit to size it against.
