Weight Distribution Recommendation for 2014 Flagstaff MAC BR23SC
Question:
I am having a hard time knowing what WDH will fit my camper. The front of the trailer is double stacked as seen in the attached pictures. Is there a unit that will work with this. I am towing with a 2010 F-150 and the tongue weight of the camper is 310# and the GVWR is 3791. I put close to 600#s of gear on the front deck motorcycles at times, bringing the tongue weight up probably closer to 400#. Any advise on a unit that will fit would be greatly appreciated. Camper model is 2014 Flagstaff MAC BR23SC. thank you,

Expert Reply:
The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. So since your tongue weight would be near 400 lbs when loaded the Reese weight distribution system part # RP66540 that you referenced would be perfect as this has a tongue weight range of 200-600 lbs.
Then for a hitch ball you'd want the part # A-90.
