Expert Reply:
The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on determining tongue weight for you to check out as well. You will want the loaded tongue weight of your setup to fall right in the middle of the tongue weight range of the system you use.
So when your trailer is loaded it might weigh up to 6,000 lbs so the tongue weight could be between 600 and 900 lbs. Based on that the Equal-I-Zer system I'd recommend is the # EQ37100ET which has a tongue weight range of 600-1,000 lbs.
