Blue Ox SwayPro VS TrackPro Weight Distribution System

Question

Question:

I am trying to figure why would I choose a Blue OX Swaypro over Blue OX Trackpro or vice versa. My TV is a 2012 Chevy Avalanche that is towing a Micro Minnie 2306bhs. Towing capacity is 7900lbs and the GVWR of the trailer is 6000lbs. Tongue weight could be as high as 750. I want a distribution hitch that offers the best weight distribution possible and offers great anti-sway capability. I have not heard a great argument from one or the other. I have noticed the Blue OX Trackpro is similar to the Equalizer. Is this their answer to their competitor? Why would I choose one over the other brand?

I would recommend that Blue Ox TrackPro # BLU77FR simply because it does not have lift chains like the SwayPro # BXW1006. Both will do a great job but the TrackPro will have a little less movement because of the absence of drop chains. Blue Ox is a popular brand and most other competitors are around the same quality if not a little less.
