Pole Tongue Adapter for Boat Trailer so that Weight Distribution Can Be Used  

I contacted Venture Trailers Inc. and found that the reason they do not recommend the use of a weight distribution system is because most weight distribution systems are not recommended for trailers with surge brakes because they do not allow the…

As long as your Reese WD system part #RP66087 that you referenced has the correct tongue weight range for the tongue weight of your setup all you would need is the pole tongue adapter, part #RP58393. However, there is no way to use the dual cam sway…

There is a reason for your sway problem. You may have too little tongue weight for the boat trailer to be stable behind the RV. If the boat is lightweight and the engine is on the back this can cause the tongue weight to be reduced and this will…

It sure will, but in order to use a Reese Steadi-Flex weight distribution system like the #RP66561 you'd looked at on a boat trailer, you'd need to use a Reese pole tongue adapter, part #RP58393. However, this does not apply on trailers with…

It is not a good idea to use weight distribution with a folding tongue due to the amount of force applied by the spring bars to the trailer. If you were to do it you would need to have a pole tongue adapter such as #RP58393 since the trailer does not…

II took a look at the weight capacity for your Honda Ridgeline and the loaded weight of your Keystone Springdale 179RD trailer. The dry weight is your trailer empty with no cargo inside whatsoever. Your trailer will be heavier once you get it loaded…

Since you have a wheelbase/axle spacing of 38 inches the correct hanger kit for slipper springs would be the part #HAP-105-205-01. And then for a 7k trailer axle the u-bolt kit you'd want would be the part #APUBR-8. I attached the diagram to use…
