Abstract:
A load-leveling, weight-distributing hitch system includes a hitch head, configured for attachment to a rear of a towing vehicle, a T socket, horizontally pivotally attached to the hitch head, a spring bar, having a forward end removably attached to the T socket, a tension member, connected to a rearward end of the spring bar, and a spring bar lift, configured for attachment to the tongue of a trailer. The spring bar lift is configured to apply tension to the tension member, so as to lift the rearward end of the spring bar, and thereby transmit a moment to the hitch head tending to lift the rear of the towing vehicle.
