Could the Trailer Valet Be Used with a Weight Distribution System

Question

Question:

I would like to order the Trailer Valet but am concerned that it will not rotate up with my current stabilizer system 14-5605 6K E2 Round Bar Hitch. I prefer to not to disconnect it while on the road with my trailer R-pod 179 but just rotate it up. Will it rotate 90 degrees in either direction?

The swivel assembly of the Trailer Valet part # STC-V211 would allow it to swivel either forward or back if needed. If you have a weight distribution system most likely you would have to install this jack behind the system or you would have to only use one system or the other as they would most likely interfere.
