With the Fastway e2 hitch there’s nothing extra to buy and install. Nothing extra to store. Nothing extra to remove before you can back into your campsite or make a u-turn. For a faster, easier and safer towing experience, get a Fastway e2 hitch today!
The Fastway e2™ hitch is the best-selling sway control and weight distribution hitch in the USA and is now available in Australia.
For the best and safest towing experience, you need the Fastway e2™ hitch, providing you with fast, easy connectivity to your trailer without the hassle, chains, add-on sway bars or dampening arms.
With its built-in sway control, the Fastway e2™ hitch has no reversing, turning, or weather restrictions. It’s rigid brackets in conjunction with the sway control bars give you permanent sway control for smarter, safer towing. Old style Weight Distribution hitches don’t provide built-in sway control and will usually require you to remove these sway bars before backing-up and making tight turns. The Fastway e2™ hitch is designed so you can get on the road faster and enjoy your drive.
The Fastway e2™ hitch can be used with GTM loads of 8,000lb (3,500 kg), 6,000lb (2,500kg) and comes standard with a 3″ drop rise shank suitable for most vehicles.
BUILT-IN SWAY CONTROL
The Fastway e2™ hitches have the convenience of Integrated Sway Control™ built into the hitch; so you have sway control engaged whenever you are hitched up and towing. The e2™ utilizes unique sway control brackets instead of old ‘add-on’ sway bars or cam type attachments that are added to chain style hitches. Integrated sway control offers many benefits including no backing or turning restrictions, and simple and easy to understand adjustments. Built with sway control in mind, the e2™ hitch is better than a chain style hitch with add-on sway control devices.
SWAY CONTROL BRACKETS
The unique rigid sway control brackets provide the convenience of integrated Sway Control™ through two points of linear steel on steel friction. Instead of the spring arm swinging back and forth freely at the bottom of a chain, e2’s spring arms rest on top of a bare metal bracket. This improvement alone significantly reduces driver fatigue and stress while towing, not to mention making it easier to use than chain style hitches on the market.
WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
Without proper weight distribution drivers can experience highway hop, loss of steering control, and sagging of the tow vehicle.
The e2 hitch changes the way the tow vehicle and trailer couple together. It creates a bridge between them, helping them work together like one unit instead of two, and distributing the weight more evenly to the axles of both vehicles. When set up properly, the steering wheels will stay more firmly planted on the ground.
Features:
- Evenly distributes weight over axles of tow vehicle and trailer
- for improved stability and control
- Creates a level ride for both tow vehicle and trailer
- Integrated 2-Point Frictional Sway Control prevents side-to-side movement
- Brackets keep spring bars in place for a rigid system that holds trailer in line. “like its on rails!”

Q & A
-
What is the purpose of a Weight Distribution Hitch?
Weight Distribution Hitches prevent the rear of a tow vehicle from sagging when the weight of the caravan or trailer is added to the tow ball. In this way the front of the tow vehicle and the rear of the caravan or trailer does not lift.
-
Are Weight Distribution Hitches the same as anti-sway devices?
No, weight distribution hitches (WDH's) are not anti-sway devices. Some WDH's do however reduce sway, but only those that specify that this is the case.
-
How do I know what the maximum tow ball weigt?
The max tow ball weight is usually indicated on the product listing and it is calculated as 10% of the gross trailer mass (GTM). The use of a Weight Distribution Hitch does NOT increase the max tow ball capacity.
-
How do I choose a Weight Distribution Hitch for my vehicle?
You need to take the following into consideration when selecting a WDH: Read the product information carefully for each WDH you are considering to ensure they meet all your requirements.
- How much weight your caravan puts on your tow ball
- How much room you have on the A-frame to mount the WDH
- The types of brakes your caravan or trailer has
- The height of your tow ball
-
When do I use a trunnion / straight bar hitch and when would I rather opt for a round bar hitch?
It depends on the depth of the A-frame and where the coupling is situated. The trunnion hitch is designed for an underslung coupling and will provide more ground clearance. The round bar hitch is designed for coupling above the tow bar and provides more clearance from the A-frame.
-
Can I still use a Weight Distribution Hitch if I have electric brakes on my caravan?
Yes, you can. However, it is important to note that the WDH will inhibit the manual override function of the electric brakes. You are still able to use a WDH, but you need to allow for harder braking.
-
Can these be used with the Ford Ranger?
No these cannot be used with the Ford Ranger without modifications.
-
How do I know I need a weight distribution hitch?
You need to ensure the car and the caravan are completely level on all angles. Before you hitch up, measure the gap in the wheel arches of all wheels on both car and van. Hitch the van up, re-measure all points. If the difference is more than 20mm you will require a WDH.
-
Is the D035 coupling compatible with the Fastway Hitches?
Yes the D035 is compatible with the Fastway Hitches.
-
Do I need power to run my Black Jack?
Yes, you require 12V power to run your Black Jack. This can be achieved via an Andersen plug to your caravan battery or your vehicle battery through the tow connection point.
-
What is the lifting capacity of a Black Jack?
The Black Jack has a 1600kg lifting capacity, more than enough for all caravans in todays market
-
Do I require the Harness Kit?
You will only need the harness kit if you don't already have 12V power at your connection point, ie Andersen plug on tow vehicle and/or caravan battery.
-
How long is the cable that comes attached to the Black Jack?
1.3m
-
How high will the Black Jack go up?
The Black Jack has a stroke of 560mm, if you require more you can utilise the RedFoot Big Block to increase your stroke length.
-
Do I have to take off the Black Jack when travelling?
No, provided you have securely attached the Jack using the supplied clamp and the leg and foot plate is fully retracted.
-
I have a Pajero Sport with a short receiver, will the shank that comes with the Fastway E2 round bar fit?
The Shank does have a 75mm receiver space which won't fit some vehicles with shorter receivers. Check out the Hot Hitches Brutus receivers. These have a 50mm receiver measurement and may suit
-
I need new tracks for my Camper Trolley but there are two types, what is the difference and which one should I get?
The bevelled tracks are for pre 2019 trolleys and any post 2019 trolleys require the square tracks.
