Recommended Weight Distribution System for Towing a 2020 Forest River Wildwood X-Lite 19DBXL
Question:
I am purchasing a 2020 FOREST RIVER WILDWOOD X-LITE 19DBXL and will be towing it with a 2019 Ram 1500 with V6 and 4WD. Do I need an Antisway and Weight Distribution Hitch. If so can you recommend one? Thanks Kevin

Thanks for that info, and a weight distribution is recommended when your trailer weight is 50 percent or more of your tow vehicle's weight, so it is definitely something you will need for your 2019 Ram 1500 towing a 2020 Forest River Wildwood X-Lite 19DBXL in order to ensure your trailer is level and you have the most control possible when you are towing.
The weight distribution system I highly recommend for towing a 2020 Forest River Wildwood X-Lite 19DBXL, which has a GVWR of 7,520 lbs is the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System with 4-Point Sway Control # EQ37120ET.
The Equal-i-zer is the best because this system uses 4 points of sway control via friction in the spring bars to ensure you never have to worry about your trailer swaying. It also uses clamp-on brackets so you won't have to drill along your trailer frame, and allows you to back up with the system on.
Our customers who have used this system regard it very highly; with around 500 reviews it has averaged nearly 5 out of 5 stars, as you can see on the product page. This system comes with everything you need for installation though it is recommended you use thin-walled socket # EQ70-00-4800 to help install the hitch ball.
I have added links to video reviews for you to check out as well of the Equal-i-zer # EQ37120ET.
