The part # EQ37120ET is going to be overkill for your setup that has a 600 lb tongue weight. If you use this system you will end up with a harsh/bouncy ride quality. Nothing would get damaged, but it would be unpleasant.

The next lower rated system is the part # EQ37060ET which is designed for tongue weights up to 600 lbs. This system would work great for if your setup is right at 600 lbs. But strangely enough there isn't a great system for tongue weights between 600 and 800 so instead you would need the # RP66083.

For a 2-5/16 inch ball you would want # EQ91-00-6100.
