If you already have the Strait-Line Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # RP66130, you won't need a new system. You'll just need the appropriate size shank for your 2007 GMC Yukon X to get the trailer level when towing. All weight distribution shanks are universal, you just need to find the correct rise or drop, and the correct size for the receiver tube.
You'll want to measure to find out how much drop or rise you need in the shank, and you can check out our selection of weight distribution shanks with the included link. I also linked a few articles with a ton of information about weight distribution and how to measure for ball mount drop or rise.
