Weight Distribution Recommendation for a 2011 Jayco Skylark Trailer
Question:
I am considering the 66557 for my 2011 Jayco Skylark, which has a 3 1/2inch frame. Will this fit?

Expert Reply:
If the frame on your trailer is 3-1/2 inches tall but no wider than 2-1/2 inches, you can use weight distribution system # 66557. But if it is 3-1/2 inches wide, you will need to use a different type of system and alternate hangers.
For a frame wider than 2-1/2 inches you can use system # RP66540 with chain hangers # RP58305, in place of the regular brackets. This system is rated for 200 to 600 pounds tongue weight like the system you referenced.
For either system, you will need a properly sized ball like # A-90 for a 2 inch diameter or # 19286 for a 2-5/16 inch diameter. I have included a link to our FAQ article on weight distribution for you.
