CURT 17500 TruTrack Weight Distribution Hitch with Sway Control – Up to 10,000 lb | 2-in Shank | 2-5/16-in Ball | Black

Precision towing with integrated sway control

The CURT 17500 TruTrack Weight Distribution Hitch blends precise weight distribution with active sway management for a smoother, more controlled tow. Designed for heavy trailers up to a 10,000 lb tongue weight distribution, it emphasizes balance across the vehicle and trailer combo, not just weight spread. Built to endure demanding conditions, the TruTrack pairs rugged hardware with an installation experience many users find straightforward, making it a practical option for frequent haulers and weekend campers alike.

Integrated sway control for a steadier tow

The sway control is embedded into the hitch design. A spring and cam system uses hardened components to actively resist side-to-side movement, while four sway-control points work together to help keep the trailer aligned during turns and gusty conditions. The result is a tow feel that many drivers describe as steadier and more predictable, with less nervousness when crossing changes in road surface or wind. Real-world results will vary with load and setup, but the system is intended to improve command over the trailer in challenging conditions.

Fast setup, dependable alignment

Setup aims to be straightforward. Interlocking nuts and six preset tilt holes provide clear references to achieve a suitable angle without guesswork. External access to the adjustment nuts allows tweaks from the outside without disassembling the head. Adjustable brackets hold the spring bars in place, reducing movement and helping maintain alignment as you drive.

Two practical benefits emerge in everyday use: easier initial installation and smoother refinements as vehicle and trailer loads change. The combination of fixed support brackets and a robust spring cam system is designed to damp sway while enabling smoother turning, even on variable surfaces or windy days. This makes the TruTrack a sensible choice for campers, livestock trailers, and other heavy-duty towing scenarios.
