Video Transcript
We didn’t just raise the bar; we eliminated it. Introducing the Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch, a complete reinvention of towing. Traditional weight distribution hitches rely on rigid sway bars that act like a diving board, often making bouncing worse instead of better. We knew there had to be a smoother way to tow, so we built a better solution from the ground up.
Our innovative friction cone design provides superior sway control, reducing pressure on your vehicle for a more stable, safer drive. The bounce-dampening chain system absorbs everything from rough train track crossings to off-grid camp spots, reducing harsh jolts and bouncy rides—something traditional hitches just can’t do.
And with true weight distribution and load leveling, weight is evenly distributed, improving handling, braking, and overall stability—giving you the smoothest ride with the easiest setup. No heavy leverage bars, no complicated adjustments; just hook up and go. With a 16,000 lb GTWR capacity, it’s built for your biggest hauls. The Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch: a smarter, smoother, better way to tow.
Extremely light-weight & Strong
Engineered for dependable towing performance, the Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch is built for strength, balance, and simplicity.

How the Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch Works
The Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch connects to your trailer coupler and tow vehicle receiver using a unique tension chain system instead of heavy spring bars. Once installed, the interconnected chains apply controlled tension that distributes tongue weight evenly across the axles while helping reduce sway and bounce.
The integrated friction cone ball housing dampens motion at the hitch point, improving handling during turns, hills, and windy highway conditions. Unlike traditional weight distribution hitches that rely on rigid steel bars, the Andersen system delivers smoother weight transfer and reduced road shock.
This design provides balanced load distribution while maintaining a cleaner, quieter, and easier-to-maintain towing setup.
