For your application I recommend checking out the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # BLU77FR which has a tongue weight rating of 800 lbs - 1,000 lbs so you'll be able to have some leeway when it comes to your tongue weight and what is loaded behind the rear axle of your 2001 Ford F-350.
I also like this system because it comes with a 2-5/16" hitch ball, adjustable brackets to fit a variety of trailer tongue configurations, and best of all it's made right here in the USA.
Attached is a review video of this weight distribution system for you to check out.
