Recommended Pole Tongue Adapter and Weight Distribution for V-Nose Trailer
Question:
I am in the market to purchase an anti sway weight distribution hitch for a single pole trailer.The trailer is a 2018 7x24 +5’ v enclosed trailer. The trailer is an aluminum trailer with a tandem axel with a gvwr 7000#. The pole tongue has a length of 32” but issue I may run into is the jack is welded to the tongue and sticks out 5.5” on one side. What weight distribution system would you recommend? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
For your pole tongue trailer, I recommend the Reese Pole-Tongue Adapter for Weight Distribution Systems # RP58393 as long as the trailer manufacturer allows weight distribution systems on the aluminum frame. I've attached the dimensions to assist so you can ensure a fit for your trailer jack. Then based on your GVWR, I recommend the Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control - Trunnion # RP66560 which will work with total loaded tongue weights between 600 and 1200 lbs. This total tongue weight includes the loaded trailer weight along with any cargo behind the rear axle of your towing vehicle.
You will also need a hitch ball like # A-90 or # 19286 depending on your coupler size.
