Comparing the Equal-i-zer and Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution Systems
Question:
I think I might be better off with the 10,000-15,000, I weighed the camper loaded and it was over 9,000, so between 900 and a 1000 lb. Tongue Weight

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Systems like part # EQ37100ET and the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution Systems like part # C17500 both have four point sway control which simply means there are four points of friction; one in each socket head and one on each end of the spring bar. The main difference between them is the head construction; forged (Equal-i-zer) vs cast (Curt) and their warranty period; lifetime (Equal-i-zer) vs ten year (Curt). The forged head is much more durable. I might also add the Equal-i-zer is made in the USA and has a very good reputation for making quality weight distribution systems but I am sure you will be happy with either option.
If you let me know what your total tongue weight is I can make sure you get the correct size.
