Can you recommend the proper WD hitch for a 2015 ZT211RD CrossRoads travel trailer. Top of coupler sits at 15 1/4 from the ground. Thnx.

It looks like your 2015 ZT211RD CrossRoads travel trailer tops out right at 7,500 lbs. Weight distribution hitches are selected based off of tongue weight which is typically between 10% and 15% of your trailer's total weight. This would put yours between 750 lbs and 1,125 lbs.
With this in mind, I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control item # EQ37120ET. This system has a tongue weight range of 800 lbs - 1,200 lbs, which is perfect for your trailer. It has built in sway control that will keep your trailer in line with your tow vehicle when you are going down the highway and get passed by a semi or make a sudden move.
This system includes a 2" shank and a 2-5/16" hitch ball. The spring bars mount right below your trailer's coupler so you will have plenty of ground clearance.
I have linked a review video below so you can see the functions of this system demonstrated.
