Weight Distribution System Recommendation that Allows up to 5 inches of Drop for 4k Trailer  

Question:

I am looking for the right sway control system to install on my 2003 Fleetwood Niagara Elite. My concern is that I currently have to use a hitch with a 5inch drop in order to level the camper and not scrap my driveway backing up the hill. Will the Reese Weight Distribution - RP66540 system work for me? Will it not sit too low to the ground? The trailer is just under 4,000 lbs. Thank you so much for the help!

Helpful Expert Reply:

Since you need a 5 inch drop to tow your trailer you would actually want the shank-less version of the RP66540 that you referenced which would be part # RP66020. This will allow you to then buy a shank that would allow you to do up to 7-1/2 inches of drop like the part # C17121.

The system mentioned uses trunnion spring bars so it will give you the best possible ground clearance over the round bar setups.

For a 2 inch ball you would want part # A-90 and for a 2-5/16 inch ball # 19286.
