Weigh Safe TTLW8-2XL True Tow Lightweight Weight Distribution Hitch Drop Shank - 8 2

The Weigh Safe TTLW8-2XL True Tow Lightweight Weight Distribution Hitch brings Weigh Safe's proven True Tow technology to lighter towing applications, rated for up to 6,000 lbs or 10,000 lbs GTW depending on spring arm selection. Designed for 2" receivers with an 8" drop and an 11" drawbar length, this hitch delivers the same guesswork-free weight distribution experience as the heavier True Tow lineup — in a package sized for smaller trailers and mid-duty tow vehicles.

Key Features:

• Built-In Tongue Weight Scale — Measures both tongue weight and distributed tongue weight in real time, ensuring your load stays within the recommended 10–15% of GTW at all times
• Live Adjustment System — An internal pivot point in the head assembly allows on-the-fly adjustments without removing or reinstalling the head, saving significant setup time
• 4-Area Anti-Sway Technology — Four friction contact points in the head assembly and trailer bracket connection reduce trailer sway caused by crosswinds, passing vehicles, and uneven road surfaces
• True Tow App Compatible — Download the companion app (iOS and Android), answer a few questions about your setup, and the app calculates the exact distributed tongue weight target for your configuration
• 8" Drop / 2" Shank — Fits standard 2" receiver tubes; 8" drop with 11" drawbar length for proper leveling on a wide range of tow vehicles
• Adjustable in 1.25" Increments — More precise height adjustment compared to competitors, with a 5/8" hitch pin hole for secure attachment
• Stainless Steel Tow Ball — Includes a 2-5/16" stainless steel tow ball that resists rust and is locked into the head assembly for security
• Reversible for Rise Applications — Can be used in rise position when your trailer sits higher than your hitch receiver
• V5 & J684 Certified — Meets industry safety and performance standards

Important Notes: Due to the extended drawbar design, some trailers may require safety chains and breakaway cables to be extended or remounted. Some sleeve-locking couplers may not be compatible due to spacing between the tow ball and the lead screw — consult the dimension guide before ordering. Weigh Safe recommends a minimum of 11" of ground clearance when using the 8" drop configuration.

Whether you're towing a small camper, boat, or utility trailer, the Weigh Safe True Tow Lightweight gives you real data and confident control on every trip — no tape measure, no guesswork.
