Weight Distribution and Sway Control Recommendation for Trailer with 640 lb of Tongue Weight
Question:
Hi, Do you have a weight distributing and sway control kit for a trailer with a gross weight of 6000 lbs and 640 lbs tongue weight? The ball size is 2 5/16.

Expert Reply:
Yes, we do carry a weight distribution system with sway control that would work well on a trailer that has a tongue weight of 640 lbs. For that the Reese Strait-Line System part # RP66083 would be what I recommend. It has a tongue weight range of 400-800 lb and features the best sway control that works to fight sway before it starts.
For a hitch ball you'll then want the part # 19286.
