Why get do away with the WD?
I don't think it's needed with my situation other than to help with tounge weight, which the airbags will solve the sag. 2000lbs of tounge weight give or take. I've ripped this up the interstate with no load on the front and never had sway. Adding weight up front won't create sway,actually the opposite. What I don't care for on the sway bar set up? And I've basically have the best one the husky. It hurts your turning radius alot. The bars are a pain to put on and off and down right scary sometimes. A guy I see at work from time to time broke his shin in half by one. So just want more user friendly in a nutshell .

I know it won’t help you since you are trying to get away from your w.d. Set up, but maybe someone else. I found to make it easier once you have a set go to link on your chain of the bar and have found the happy spot. I always would set the tongue down just enough onto to the ball to get it to latch, but not all the weight off the jack. That’s the time to throw the weight distribution bars on, It won’t take a 4’ cheater pipe on it to get it cam over and lock. They still are a pain sometimes, but better

I had the chain style but broke it reverse turn. Went with this setup. Mind you this price is just the head!

I know.. I posted the link. They ship via slow boat from China but for the $$ I’ll play with them and see if they’ll work. Even if I don’t use them on the storage door I’ll find some use for them.
Only problem i see with them is the diameter of the button. I dont think it will fit in the recessed hole the bolt was in. I may order a couple myself though..thanks for the link!
