Weight Distribution Recommendation for 1,500 lbs Tongue Weight and 7 inch Drop
Question:
Hi, I am looking for a weight distribution hitch with sway control for a flatbed equipment trailer and I was wondering if you could help with the options that would work best for me? My max trailer weight is 15000 loaded and 1500 tongue weight and I need a 7 inch drop. I look forward to hearing back and I thank you for your help,

For a tongue weight of 1,500 lbs the Reese Strait Line System part # RP66075 would be a great option as it has a tongue weight range up to 1,700 lbs and features the only sway control on the market designed to fight sway before it starts.
Then for a drop shank that can do up to 9 inches of drop and has a 1,500 lb tongue weight capacity the part # C17124 would be what you need.
