Without a weight distribution system, the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41930 is rated much better, but when used with your weight distribution hitch the factory hitch is rated better. Since your factory hitch is rated so well and has no rust, and you already have a weight distribution system, you are good to go with your factory hitch.
If you want more options for your hitch without weight distribution, then the Draw-Tite hitch would be a better option.
