Expert Reply:

The Reese Replacement Head for Reese Trunnion Weight Distribution Systems # RP58167 does not itself carry a weight rating since that will be determined by the particular set of trunnion spring bars that are installed in it. The head has enough capacity for use with any of the appropriate Reese trunnion bars we offer including part # 66010, a set of which is rated for 1700-lbs maximum tongue weight.

I spoke with my contact at Reese and he stated that if your 800 pound system is newer, within the last 3-1/2 to 4 years, then the higher capacity 1,700 pound bars, like #66010, will fit. However, what you need to also look at is the shank. The shank…
