Equal-i-Zer Weight Distribution System Recommendation for 8,000 lb Trailer
Question:
So I suppose if I have a 8000 gvw and a 650lb tongue weight, none of the equalizer wds are for me. Would you recommend the E2 8000 then?

Expert Reply:
I have a better solution for you, but with your relatively lighter tongue weight on your trailer you are probably going to have sway that you won't be able to fix until you get your tongue weight up to around 10 percent of your trailer's total weight. Moving cargo forward in the trailer will accomplish that.
Once you do that you'd then want the Equal-I-Zer Kit part # EQ37100ET that you referenced. This has a tongue weight range of 600 to 1,000 lbs.
