Reese Weight Distribution System Recommendation for a 2012 Toyota Tundra
Question:
I have a 2010 Rockwood 2604 and am pulling it with a 2012 Toyota Tundra. I already have a WD system with the cam anti sway system I bought from e trailer. I would like to replace the old bars and hitch. Which Reese system should I buy? The TW of the trailer is 630 dry and I would anticipate this goes up to around 700 or so when I am camping.

The most important figure to consider when picking out a weight distribution system is the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is ready to tow. You should note that the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle should be counted as tongue weight also. I attached an FAQ article on how to determine tongue weight for you to check out also. I would recommend you verify your tongue weight before you purchase a weight distribution system.
If your loaded tongue weight is 700 lbs like you speculated then the Reese Weight Distribution System # RP66021 that you referenced would be a great choice for you. I checked your order notes and it looks like you bought a Reese Dual Cam High-Performance Sway Control # RP26002 from us a few years ago. The # RP66021 would work very well with the sway control system you have.
