Blue Ox Hitches and Choosing the Correct Weight Distribution System

Question:

May I ask??? I have a 2003 F250 Super Duty extended Cab, and my trailer is a American Hauler Night Hawk, which weighs about 2125lbs. Ill be hauling a load between 2600-2900lbs. Will a Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control - Clamp On - 10,000 lbs. GTW, 1,000 lbs. TW Item # BXW1006 do the job correctly??? Greatly appreciate your time and effort. Happy 4th!!!

The Blue OX Weight Distribution System you're talking about item # BXW1006 will get the job done but you will have a very rigid and stiff ride. I have a better product for you based on the weight specifications you've provided.

I recommend a different Blue Ox weight distribution system with a little more than half of the tongue weight at 750 lbs. The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution Hitch item # BXW0756 will provide a smoother ride and still have more than enough capacity to haul your trailer fully load.
