Hi, I am Daniel with etrailer and today we're gonna be taking a look at our 2022 Jeep Wagoneer and how to install our CURT TruTrack 2P weight distribution hitch. Having a weight distribution attached to a trailer is a great option, especially if you are wanting to prolong the life of your suspension in your vehicle, prolong the wear on your tires and also it'll prove the drivability for when you're going down to the campsite. So having a weight distribution system is great for balancing out your load. So instead of all that tongue weight being down on that hitch, it's going to balance that out and relieve some pressure on those back tires, which will create better drivability and less wear. So better even distributed weight on those tires will create turning and handling way better with this system. So this CURT distribution system has a two inch shank that'll fit into your two inch by two inch hitch receiver.
It also comes with a 5/8 inch pin and clip, and this system does come with a 2-5/16 hitch ball. So do double check if your trailer can accommodate that. This spring bar is attached to this adjustable bracket here. You can raise and lower it as needed just to get the right fit for your trailer. But if you ever wanna take this apart, you're gonna wanna raise your trailer up.
And once you have it raised, that releases the tension on these spring bars. You're not gonna wanna take this out before you release that tension, but now you want to go ahead and take this bracket out and you should be able to pull these away. And then to remove your spring bar, you're gonna wanna lift up, pull this tab out and it'll fall right out. Throw 'em in the back of your car and hit the grocery store while you're at the campsite. And when you're ready to hook back up to your trailer and you're head to the next site, you want to go ahead and put your spring bar back in till it clicks.
And now you're gonna want to grab this device that comes with the kit and you're gonna wanna put that up underneath here, tilt it forward and apply a little pressure so this goes into place. And you may need to scoot it back just a little bit so you can get that clip in there. Now we're gonna put our clip back with our pin and we're ready to go. The install of this system is pretty straightforward, it's pretty easy to do, you can do it at home. There is a lot of minute details that you need to keep in mind.
So if that kind of frightens you or you don't have the tools or time, feel free to check out our dealer locator and we can find a professional to do it for you. Without further ado, let's get into the install. Alright, so first off, we're going to unhitch our vehicle from our camper here and then we're gonna get our camper level. If you're not on completely level ground, you can always take a measurement from a spot on your camper just to make sure the front and the back just to make sure it's level. And then we're gonna come up here and get a measurement. From the ground to the top of our ball coupler here. So today, once we got ours leveled, it's about 21-1/4, and that's gonna be important for later. So now we're gonna go ahead and find the tongue weight of this specific camper. And that's gonna be important to know for later when we're determining the height of our ball mount. I am gonna be using this tongue weight scale. You can pick one up at etrailer if you don't have one at home. (scale buzzing) Looks like the tongue weight for this camper is about 800 pounds. As per the instructions, it does say to add 1/8 of an inch per 100 pounds of tongue weight. So our ball mount will be about an inch higher than the top of our coupler because it's about 800 pounds of tongue weight. So if you have a Jeep Wagoneer that has the Quadra Trac system, which is the air suspension system, you are gonna wanna disable that first before you get all your measurements. So first off, to disable your suspension is you're going to want to toggle this button down in order to lower that to normal drive height mode. So now you're gonna wanna go into your settings, toggle down to suspension, and once you hit that, you're gonna want to find this tire jack mode and you're gonna wanna press that on. So now air suspension temporarily disabled, it'll s
