To determine the correctly rated system for your trailer, you need its loaded and ready to tow tongue weight. Then add that to the amount of weight stored in the back of your Yukon behind the real axle. Any weight behind the rear axle effects a weight distribution sysyem just as tongue weight. With that number, you can find an appropriate system. The best Curt weight distribution system is the TruTrack. If your tongue weight plus the weight behind the Yukon's rear axle is over 800 pounds then part # C17500 will work great for you. It's rated for 800 to 1,000 pounds of tongue weight.
If your number is lower than 800, then I recommend something other than a Curt system, like the Equal-i-zer, part # EQ37100ET. This system is rated from 600 to 1,000 pounds and, in this case, will be a better fit.
I have attached help guides and videos to get more familiar with this product.
