Expert Reply:
For a weight distribution hitch that won't break the bank I recommend the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution w Sway Control # RE34FR. When choosing a WDH you want to make sure you choose the right system based on your tongue weight. Tongue weight is typically 10-15% of your loaded trailer weight. Assuming 3,500 lbs you're looking at 350-525 lbs of tongue weight.
The Reese # RE34FR has a tongue weight range of 200-600 lbs so you will fall nicely in the middle of the range. However, I do recommend verifying this using a tongue weight scale like the # e99044. This WDH will keep you level and provide sway control using the bolt-on brackets with steel-on-steel friction. It also features a limited lifetime warranty.
