As long as the car hauler has frame members that don't exceed 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide and the fully loaded trailer's tongue weight doesn't exceed 1000 lbs, your Curt # C17500 TruTrack Weight Distribution System will work just fine, even if the trailer has a hydraulic or surge brake coupler (which the rental company that uses the orange paint on all their stuff typically uses).

The # C17500 uses a 2-5/16 inch trailer ball, so you'll want to make sure the coupler on the hauler is compatible.

I'll link you to the installation instructions and an install video that will walk you through the installation process.

Thanks for reaching out, Sam! The Kodiak Disc Brakes #KOD59FR with the Dacromet/KodaGuard are definitely a solid choice, but the hub-rotors and brackets only have a 300- to 400-hour salt spray rating and the calipers have a 500- to 600-hour salt…
