The best way to choose the correct Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System is to take the GVWR of the trailer and multiple by .10 and .15 as this should then give you an estimated tongue weight range. The part # FA92-00-0800 would be ideal for any trailer with a tongue weight between 400 lbs - 800 lbs.
I am not sure if the 500 lb / 5,000 lb figures were dry or wet but the above would have you covered either way.
