 NEW DELUXE TRUNNION WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION KITS
 NOW AVAILABLE FROM HIDDEN HITCH 

MADISON HEIGHTS, MI – Hidden Hitch has added three new trunnion-style
weight distribution products to its comprehensive line of hitches and
towing accessories.  The new trunnion-style weight distribution systems,
part numbers 40051, 40052 and 40053, are offered in addition to the
company's existing round bar style weight distribution kit.

The trunnion weight distribution hitch features a swivel head, offering six
convenient tilt positions from –5 to + 6.5 degrees; up to14,000 gtw
capacity with 600-, 800- and 1000-pound tongue weights; quick release; a
head that accepts dual sway controls as well as a 10” adjustable shank that
adapts for use with most full-size automobiles, trucks and sport utility
vehicles.  	

“Weight distribution systems are particularly useful for those towing loads
in excess of 5000 pounds,” according to Peter Bell, marketing manager for
Hidden Hitch.  “Weight distributing hitches remove excess weight from the
rear axle and distribute it across all axles of the vehicle 

The benefit is a more level ride.  This also causes less stress on the tow
vehicle and its rear axle and results in better handling and greater
steering and brake control.  “Overall, it offers a much safer towing
set-up,” Bell added, noting that the use of a weight distribution hitch
also reduces the chance of the trailer swaying in heavy wind or when a
tractor-trailer passes by.  

As with all Hidden Hitch brand products, the trunnion weight distribution
hitch has been “Built for Life” of premium cast components with a rust
resistant textured gloss powdercoat, black paint finish.  The kit includes
a receiver as well as all necessary hardware such as the hook-up brackets
and handle, spring bar, chains, ball mount shank, head assembly and hitch
pin and clip.   The hitch ball is sold separately, and all parts and
accessories are also offered individually on a replacement basis.  

The Hidden Hitch trunnion weight distribution product is interchangeable
with competitors' components and hooks up in only three to four minutes. 

Hidden Hitch, located in Madison Heights, MI, carries a full line of
hitches and accessories, and is the premier source for innovatively
designed complete towing systems.  Founded more than 30 years ago, the
company is ISO-9001 and QS9000-certified.  For more information, contact
