Expert Reply:
For trailers with pole tongues like your Carry-On trailer we have pole tongue adapters like the part # EQ95-01-5950 which fit the tongue and give a place for the spring bars to attach to at the proper angle. Then based on the weight of your trailer and the capacity of your 2016 Ford Escape you'd want the Equal-I-Zer WD system part # EQ37040ET.
