Expert Reply:
Yes, if your tongue weight is 960 lbs dry the Reese Steadi-Flex System part # RP66560 would be perfect for you as it has a tongue weight range of 800-1,200 lbs and your tongue weight falls right in the middle of that which is ideal when picking out a WD system.
If your loaded tongue weight exceeds that then you may need a higher rated system. Keep in mind the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle counts as tongue weight as well. The part # RP66561 would be for 800-1,400 lbs tongue weight.
For a 2 inch ball you would want part # A-90 or for a 2-5/16 inch ball part # 19286.
