For your Forest River Rockwood 2304DS I recommend using the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37100ET. This system has the correct weight capacity for your Rockwood. It will accommodate tongue weights of 600-1000lbs and a maximum trailer weight of 10,000lbs. They have incorporated the sway control into the system and it is capable of backing up your trailer without having to remove any parts. Best of all you get a hitch that is backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty and made in the USA.

You may need the 1-7/8" 12pt Thin Walled Socket # ALL643216 to install the hitch ball onto the hitch if you do not already have one that will work.

I recommend using the Sway Bracket Jackets # EQ95-01-5150 to reduce the amount of noise the hitch makes as well as extend the life of the parts.
