    Question Weight Distribution Hitch (WDH) & D4

    Hi, I’dappreciate some advise please..Looking at hiring a Jayco Expand for a week overChristmas and part of the rental agreement states that fitting a Weight Distribution Hitch (WDH) is compulsory but according to LR these devices are not recommended.

    I don’t have the trailer stability option so can I tow the Jayco with the WDH? Any advise is appreciated.

    In the manual it states the use of load leveling devices are a no no, I gather you havent read the book

    If you have a D4 then you HAVE trailer stability, again its in the book.....!

    I have a 2010 TDV6 D4 and was told that only the SDV6 & HSE come trailer stability assist?

    And we towed a 18ft jayco expanda for 2 years with the D4 and it towed it like it wasn't there, and no to the WDH

    Hi White D4,
    All Discovery 4's regardless of spec &/or engine are equipped with TSA.
    Cheers
