The ones I looked at were the hitch head,shank, and bars no ball. One was 765 next step up was 785, 14k was 885. Obviously there price is higher. I find etrailer to have pretty good prices and great customer service. Hope the OP gets his situation resolved.

I would still get a CAT scale ticket first to have an actual weight and go from there. Of course I live in a much different world. No dealer I have worked for ever used bars on anything. All towed with F350 duallies and SRW wheels and just hitched and towed.

I bent my e2 1000# bars with 1120# of tongue weight. I was able to upgrade bars and trunnions to 1200#. They are thicker bars but they still fit at the trunnions on the hitch head and sway brackets. e2 is a copycat Equalizer. Insist on heavier bars at a minimum.

Again the heavier 12k bars do not fit the 10k head.
