If it were me I would go with the 1,200 pound Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37120ET. It has a tongue weight range of 800 to 1,200 pounds and if your tongue weight when loaded and ready to tow is essentially 900 pounds then you are less likely to go over the system capacity.

When choosing a weight distribution system you will need to go by the total tongue weight of the set up. This is calculated by taking the tongue weight of the trailer, when loaded and ready to tow, and adding to that the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle.
