Expert Reply:
This Husky system is the correct one because, since your trailer weight will more than 50 percent of your vehicle's weight capacity, this system is rated correctly based on tongue weight and weight behind the rear axle.
The Husky Center Line Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # HT32216 is a great choice and great value. This system also helps prevent sway before it begins. Having sway control is a good addition to achieve a safe tow. The Center Line TS on this system has so much tension in the head that holds the trailer steady at the connection point rather than relying on the frame brackets to keep the trailer in line, there is less popping and shifting while you drive.
This unit also includes the Shank, is electric and surge brake compatible, and allows backing up.
If you are in the market for a brake controller the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer # 90195 is our best seller. For a 4-way and 7-way connection choose # HM11141164 and # ETBC7.
