Recommended Weight Distribution System for 2014 Jeep Cherokee Pulling Trailer
Question:
Hello, I am towing a trailer that when fully loaded is about 3300lbs of gear. I have a 2014 JEEP Cherokee 3.2 with tow package that is rated up to 4500 lbs with a tongue weight rating of 450. What Weight Distributing Hitch do you suggest? I need a 2 inch ball for the trailer. Thanks so much!

Expert Reply:
There is a really good for a weight distribution system for a more relaxed towing experience and reduced sway with your 2014 Jeep Cherokee pulling a trailer, and for that I recommend the Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System # RP66558.
This system will keep you level while also giving you four points of sway control using friction in the spring bars; it uses clamp-on brackets that do not require drilling for installation and also allows you to back up with the system in place. The Steadi-Flex comes with all the parts you need to install except for the hitch ball; for that you will need the 2" Hitch Ball # 63845.
