When using a Equal-I-zer 4 point sway hitch. Does this trailer have the 4 3/8inch frame that requires special inner and outer brackets designed for Bal Norco frames?

Your 2015 Jayco White Hawk 27DSRL, has a GVWR of 7500 lbs and a dry hitch weight rating of 510 lbs. The Equal-i-zer weight distribution system I recommend for you is the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control - 10,000 lbs GTW, 1,000 lbs TW # EQ37100ET as long as you have the ability to position the brackets to your trailer frame between 27 and 32 inches back from the center of your coupler where the hitch ball connects.

The reason I recommend this particular system is because you want a weight distribution system to be based on total tongue weight. This total tongue weight is the completely loaded trailer tongue weight as well as any cargo behind the rear axle of the towing vehicle. This total weight needs to be between 600 and 1000 lbs for this system, and ideally will fall close to the middle of that range. As long as the brackets fit on your trailer frame, this system with its 4-point friction anti-sway system will work very well for your application.

I recommend using the 1-7/8" 12pt Socket - 3/4" Drive - Chromium-Vanadium Steel # ALL643216 over the # EQ70-00-4800. A thin walled socket like this is required to attach the hitch ball to this system.
