I suggest the Fastway e2 # FA92-00-0800. This is rated for a GTW from 400-800 lbs. and for trailers up to a gross weight of 8,000lbs. This unique design makes system compatible with surge-type brake actuators.
I also highly recommend that you verify tongue weight prior to investing in a weight distribution system as the tongue weight rating is the most important factor in determining which size weight-distribution system you should use. The tongue weight is generally speaking between 10-15 percent of the loaded trailers weight. Based on stats you listed, you may be up to 800 lb. TW or pushing over that.
If you discover you need one step up from my recommendation above then I suggest the Fastway e2 # FA94-00-1033 that is rated for 10,000 lbs GTW and a tongue weight from 600 lbs. - 1,000 lbs.
For the installation it is best to have thin walled 1-7/8" socket available. We have this available with # ALL643216.
