Husky center line towing system

My friend has a 26 foot Jayco travel trailer. He wants to buy a husky center line towing system. Anyone using one of these, what do you like and not like about it, ease of operation, other manufactures suggestions?

Thanks for the feedback

I set mine up last weekend. It's 45lbs heavier than my old standard weight dist. setup. Handled tight turns easier and is quieter backing and parking in my driveway.
I will give it the full test in a couple weeks on a Florida run. Going to hit a CAT scale too for more data. I'll report a road test then.

I have 5 or 6 trips out with the 801-1,200lb tongue weight set up and it's great. The hitch itself is heavy but it's a great system; works very well and is quiet. To hitch and unhitch you need to be within 5-8 degrees of straight, we just unhook w/d bars to jack knife into spots. 2 thumbs up.

We have had our for a year. No problems so far. We do unhook or hook up the sway bars when the truck is straight to the trailer. No big deal for us.

Used our Centerline for 3 yrs & put somewhere in the neighbor hood of 12-13,000 miles on it. 2 yrs on our old 6.0 F-250 & 1 yr on our F-150. 801-1200# bars w/ 1046# TW & 8600# 31' TT. Was an awesome system once I got it dialed in. Was absolutely no sway or bounce. No worries. I'd take it all apart about every 500-600 miles and clean & re greased the parts as stated in the paper work. Only pain was ...like stated ... had to be straight to hook or unhook the spring bars. If & a big.. if (as in he!! would have to freeze over) we ever go back to a TT, lol ... I would definitely get an other Centerline.
