Video Transcript for Reese Weight Distribution RP6637 Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at part number RP6637. These are the Reese replacement lift brackets for Reese Weight Distribution Systems. The brackets are going to mount on the trailer tongue and they're going to provide the connection points for the chainS that are connected to the weight distribution spring bars. Those chains are going to connecT right here to this little hook. The lift bar attaches to the handle, right here. That's going to make lowering and raising the spring bars much easier and safer.

That lift handle is included. The replacement unit is designed for use with Reese Weight Distribution Systems. You're also going to get your two safety pins. They through this area right here. That's going to keep the brackets in the raised position. These are made from a steel construction and they're going to have a nice black powder coat finish which is going to make it stand up well against rust and corrosion.

You're going to get two snap up brackets. You're going to get the two pins, your installation bolts will go into this slot back here. You're going to get the left handle. Now these are going to install approximately thirty inches back from the coupler. If we take a measurement of the width, that's going to let us know about how much room along the trailer frame it's going to take up. From edge to edge that looks to be about five and a half inches so it's going to take up about five and a half inches of space along the trailer frame.

If we measure the opening here, you see that measures just a little over two and a half inches. So this will not fit trailer frames that are wider than two and a half inches. That's going to do it for today's review of part number RP6637. These are the replacement lift brackets for the Reese Weight Distribution Systems.

by:

Thanks to etrailer they helped get the right replacement parts and everything went great.



by:

Great price! Great item, only one reason giving 4 instead of 5 stars. In the enclosed instructions, they read pre-drilled holes to hard mount to trailer frame. These are not pre-drilled, not "etrailer"s fault. I presume that is a "Reese" production change, but don't feel right not expressing a little "irritation" that I now have to drill holes in the brackets as well as my trailer frame.



by:

I bought these to replace a bent bracket. Decided to replace as a pair. Work great on my Reese trunnion bar setup. Shipping didn't take long. Having installation instructions included was a nice touch.



by:

Just what I needed. Clear instructions, and quality parts. Great follow up from staff. Thanks.



by:

Lift brackets were not quite a direct replacement for my WD hitch (a ProPride 3P), but they work great and are much easier/quicker to use. The paint wears off near the pivot points and where the chain goes. Every so often, I take them off and re-paint them so they look pretty. After a year, they still work great, but there is very slight wear where the chain hooks up.



by:

These weight distribution brackets really helped my trailer hitch weight. I am glad that they really helped when I pull my toy hauler. Thanks for your products.

They work very good. It pulls up the weight off of my hitch how ever much I want! Thanks for your products.



by:

Great product worked as advertised and easy to install



by:

Packed securely and arrived a day earlier than expected. That's always nice!



by:

Shipped and received On Time. Prompt with tracking information and received as advertised. Well Done.



by:

Exactly what i needed



by:

Arrived early which helps my schedule this week, thanks a lot.



by:

Delivered on time and was an exact fit for the old ones. The retaining pins seem kind of small but haven't done any towing yet to see how they hold up.



by:

Just what I expected. Thank You



by:

The lift brackets fit the sway bars we got from our neighbor. Worked very well. Wish the transmission on the old Suburban we previously used with the bars, worked as well. The "new to us" F-350 diesel 4x4 should remedy that problem. A bit over kill, but was what we could find at the time. Thanks.

Perfect - we have used it and it works well - used for over a month last summer - will be using again this summer. Thanks for having replacement parts.



by:

Always had excellent service with e-trailer. I ordered parts for an equalizing hitch, was advised that if I ordered under a different part number I would get faster delivery at a cheaper price and quicker delivery and a free handle. So I did, thanks e-trailer.



by:

So easy to install and works great! The trailer pulls much better with the equalizer hitch installed. These were parts to put on a second trailer in order to use a hitch I already had. Very timely delivery and easy installation!
Great source for parts! Thanks everyone.



by:

I received excellent assistance when contacting etrailer by phone, trying to determine the correct piece-items needed for my new trailer, to replace the parts for my Reese Sway-Control/Wt Distribution system that I "lost" when selling my old trailer.
they were polite, patient and helpful.
This hardware set, as well as the Lift brackets and Dual-sway Cams were as heavy-duty as needed (as described) and will be putting them onto my new trailer as soon as I pick, it up.



by:

Very pleased with the products, perfect fit to my already weight distribution hitch. shipping was fast and the package was surprisingly wrapped better than I thought it would have been. the brake controller was the easiest to install, Just connect the cable to the connector under the dash and it works. Just read the instructions on setting the power level for your trailer brakes. that is very important. Sorry about no pictures bad weather while installing but will take pictures of finished product. Thanks again



by:

I bought these for a second trailer. My load leveling hitch now works for both trailers. I'm happy with these.



by:

I bought a new camper and wanted to go out camping the next week but i needed weight distribution brackets and a an anti sway mount before i could go. I ordered these parts from etrailer.com and in a matter of a few days the correct parts showed up and i was able to install them before i needed to leave for my camping trip. Needless to say i was very happy.



by:

Very happy with the brackets. The pins look a bit flimsy so I replaced them with better lockable ones.



by:

I have not installed the lift brackets on my trailer, but cannot find any reason that they would not work as designed. It is winter in the northeast and I will not install for a while. These lift brackets will definitely aid in hauling my 4500lb enclosed car hauler trailer.



by:

this is a Reese product, I expect it to be good and it is. fits and works as represented.The price, customer service and shipping was great.

Lots of long heavy miles . Works fone



by:

We purchased Reese hitch accessories from etrailer.com and are very satisfied with our purchase.



by:

E-trailer is great to work with. I was not sure which lift brackets would work, e trailer made it easy with all the videos and information.
I received the product in just a few days and it took me 10 minutes to hook it up.

Thanks e trailer I will be back for all my towing needs.

  • Looking For Reese Parts 6637 And 58062
    Hello Floyd, we can indeed provide the parts you mentioned. Take a look at the following: - Replacement Ball-Plate Assembly for Reese Friction Sway-Control System # RP58062 - Replacement Lift Brackets with Handle for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # RP6637

  • Will Lift Bracket RP6637 and Chains 3216 Fit on Pro Series RB3 Weight Distribution System
    Yes, the lift brackets part # RP6637 and the chain part # 3216 would work with the Pro Series RB3 weight distribution part # PS49582 that you have.

  • Can Reese Weight Distribution Lift Brackets # RP6637 Fit 2 inch Wide Trailer Frame
    The Reese Replacement Lift Brackets with Handle for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # RP6637 that you referenced do fit a 2 inch wide trailer frame. These hangers don't carry the weight of a trailer at any point so they aren't weight rated but they this would work just fine on a trailer with the weight you mentioned.

  • What Size Trailer Frame Will the Replacement Weight Distribution Chain Hangers Fit On
    The Replacement Lift Brackets, # RP6637, will fit on trailer frames that are 3 inches tall or greater and up to 2-1/2 inches wide along the top. I added a photo of the brackets on a 2 inch by 3 inch trailer frame for you to see. The lift brackets mounting bolt is also long enough to accommodate a C channel style frame. These brackets will require 5-1/2 inches of space along the length of your 4 inch trailer frame for installation. This means that you will need 5-1/2 inches along the frame...

  • Replacement Frame Brackets for Reese Weight Distribution Systems
    The part # RP21501 includes one lift bracket. If you need two brackets you would want the part # RP6637 instead. This comes with a lift handle as well.

  • Will Reese Lift Brackets # RP6637 work on a Trailer with 788 lbs of Tongue Weight
    The Replacement Lift Brackets, # RP6637, will fit on trailer frames that are 3 inches tall or greater and up to 2-1/2 inches wide along the top. As long as your trailer has a frame with those measurements you would be fine to use these hangers on your trailer with 8,600 lbs total weight and 788 lbs of tongue weight. You will want to use a weight distribution system with spring bars that encompass the tongue weight of your trailer when it is loaded. Tongue weight also includes the weight...

  • Fit and Compatibility of Weight Distribution System Chain Lift Brackets
    There are different brackets, like the Replacement Heavy Duty Snap-Up Bracket for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # 58392 which will fit tongue weight capacities up to 800 lbs. This is the same bracket that comes with the # RP6637. The # RP21501 is for TW capacities up to 600 lbs. I believe the hooks are the same size, so the chains may not be correct on your system. If this is the case, I recommend the Reese Replacement Weight Distribution Chain Kit # 3216.

  • Difference Between Weight Distribution Chain Lift Brackets # 586392 and # RP21501
    Because your trailer is fairly heavy, I would recommend you go with 2 of the # 58392 lift brackets. The 58392 has extra gusseting welded to it for reinforcement, and would be better suited to a heavier trailer like yours, because the spring bars will be under greater tension than they would be for a lighter trailer. Part # RP6637 is a kit that includes two of the # RP21501 brackets and the lift handle. If you look at the photo I have edited for you, you can see the difference between...

  • Reese Weight Distribution Chain Lift Brackets and Sway Control Ball Mount For 2ND Trailer
    For your Reese weight distribution hitch, you will need the Replacement Lift Brackets # RP6637 for the weight distribution bar chains. For the sway bar we have the Replacement Ball-Plate Assembly # RP58062 or you can get the Reese Friction Sway Control Kit # 83660 so that you will have a spare sway bar in the event one becomes damaged or lost. I have seen when a weight distribution is used on multiple trailers that often the sway bar gets left in the trailer since it is often removed...

  • Reese Weight Distribution Snap up Bracket Recommendation
    If you chose to drill into the frame of your trailer to install the # 58392 there are two holes that the bracket has for that purpose. A better deal would be to order the part # RP6637 that is these brackets sold in a pair, plus an additional lift bar. For extra safety pins you would want Reese Replacement Clips for Weight Distribution Uplift Brackets, part # 58029.

  • Replacement Lift Brackets for a Weight Distribution System
    It sounds like you are looking for a set of lift brackets for a weight distribution system. Although it would be helpful if I knew which system you currently have, lift brackets are fairy universal therefore you would more than likely be able to use either part # RP6637 or part # RP58305. The part ending in "37" are clamp-on style brackets that will fit trailer frames up to 2-1/2" wide. The part ending in "05" are bolt-on style brackets that will be needed if your frame rail is wider...

  • Replacement Lift Bracket for Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution System
    The Replacement Lift Brackets with Handle for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # RP6637 is what you want for your Reese Strait-Line dual cam # RP66084. This is the proper replacement for the tongue weight you are referring to. If you just want the single replacement # RP21501 which is rated for 600 lbs is what comes with the unit, so the # 58392 is a stronger bracket rated for 800 lb tongue weight. The head, cam arms, and brackets share the weight, so rest assured these are the proper...

  • Replacement Trailer Bracket for Reese Sway Bars 22210
    The Replacement Head for Reese Weight Distribution System - Trunnion Bar # RP58167 is confirmed to go with your sway bars. There are two possible sway bar styles and that will impact the brackets needed. If you have the tapered bars that are straight at the end then you can use the # RP6637 for chain use with Reese Replacement Chain Kit # 55630 but the SC system brackets are no longer available. If you have the bars with the curve like # RP66009 then you will use brackets # RP6637...

  • Looking For Replacement Parts For A Quality S Weight Distribution System
    Quality S is not a brand of weight distribution system we carry, so I cannot say if replacements that we have from other brands will fit properly, unfortunately. I was also unable to find any information about this brand. With that said, the best recommendation I can make is to replace the system with a brand that is still being produced and has replacement parts readily and easily available. The Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # RP66084, as an example, can...

  • Chain Hangers for use With Reese Weight Distribution
    There are a pair of options when choosing chain hangers for your Reese Titan Weight Distribution System # RP66006. The bolt-on chain hangers are # RP58305, but if you prefer not to drill you can use the clamp-on chain hangers, # RP58306. For snap-up brackets you would want to use the Replacement Lift Brackets with Handle for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # RP6637, or the Replacement Heavy Duty Snap-Up Bracket for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # 58392.

  • Replacement Lift Brackets for Pro Series Weight Distribution System 49903
    We do have replacement lift brackets that will work perfectly with your Pro Series Weight Distribution System w Friction Sway Control 49903, though not ones that are weld on. Instead, the correct replacements are the Replacement Lift Brackets with Handle # RP6637.

  • Replacement Parts for Reese Weight Distribution System with Dual Cam Sway Control
    The replacement cam arms are sold in a pair # RP26002 or just the replacement arm # RP58435. Due to the inheritance of your setup you may have a set of gold colored cam arms instead of silver. If this is the case you would want to replace both arms because there was a design change and I cannot recommend you use an old version cam arm with a new one. Alternatively, if your setup is currently silver you can just replace the one arm with either of the above listed products. The heavy...

  • Parts Needed to Install Weight Distribution System on Second Trailer
    To use the Pro Series RB3 on two trailers would only require you to get a second set of spring hangers. For that you would want the part # RP6637 and for the chains part # 55630.

  • Replacement Weight Distribution Lift Brackets and Friction Sway Control Ball Plate Assembly
    It sounds like you are looking for frame brackets, # RP6637, which is what the chains hang from on the trailer frame. And it also sounds like you need a replacement ball plate assembly, # RP58062, which mounts to the side of the trailer frame.

  • Installation Instructions for the Reese Weight Distribution System Tip Up Brackets # RP6637
    The Reese Weight Distribution System Tip Up Brackets, item # RP6637, are designed so that they can be installed with just the bolts wedged against the trailer frame, or they can be bolted to the frame. Most people opt to just tighten the frame bolts and leave it at that, so that they do not have to drill into the trailer frame. I have linked a set of installation instructions for you to review, on page 3 you will find the instructions for installing the tip up brackets.

  • Problem Lifting Snap-Up Brackets on Weight Distribution System
    As a first step, I would recommend reviewing the set-up instructions included with your system. Typically, there should not be so much pressure on the spring bars that its difficult to snap the brackets upward. How are the spring bars situated once the brackets are snapped up in place? The spring bars should be angled back and downward from the weight distribution head, or at least parallel with the trailer frame, but certainly not pointing upward. If your system is set up according...

  • Can Reese SC Weight Distribution Spring Bars be Converted to Use Chain Hanging Brackets
    Technically yes, you could use a chain, # 55630, on a Reese SC spring bar. But you will also need the lift brackets or chain hangers. For the lift brackets you would need # RP21501 sold in quantities of one. Or you can get a pair with a lift handle # RP6637. Another option is to use chain hangers that bolt to the sides of the frame. For a set use # RP58305.

  • Replacement Lift Brackets and Friction Sway Control Ball For Pro Series Weight Distribution
    Sounds like you need replacement chain hangers and a replacement friction sway control ball. For a set of lift bracket/chain hangers you would want the part # RP6637. For a replacement ball for the friction sway control you would want the part # RP58060. If you want the entire sway control bar then use # 83660. Prices are available at the product links.

  • Replacement Snap Up Bracket Recommendation for Reese Weight Distribution System
    Sounds like you have a standard Reese weight distribution system based on the part number for the shank that you mentioned. So for frame chain hangers we have the # RP6637 which comes with a set of hangers for both sides of the trailer plus a lift handle.
