Recommended Trailer Sway Control For Legend V-Nose Trailer With Side Mounted Trailer Jack
Question:
Looking for weight distribution but mostly sway control. Have 2016 Expedition and trailer is legend 21 ft Deluxe v nose. attaching pictures of tongue. My concern is the way they have the jack on outside of v nose tongue. I have about 31inches from center of ball to tip of v-nose. Will Curt mv work? Tongue wait maybe 800# trailer gross around 6000# Thanks

Expert Reply:
With the design of your Legend Trailer V-Nose I recommend using the Tuson Asymmetric Sway Control # 335TSC-1000. The positioning of the jack in combination with the trailers tongue are going to make it impossible to use a traditional weight distribution hitch like the Curt # C17062 that you are looking at.
Since your trailer does already has electric brakes the Tuson Asymmetric Sway Control # 335TSC-1000 will use the trailer brakes to correct any trailer sway that will occur. Do note that this will only correct trailer sway and will not do any load leveling for your 2016 Ford Expedition.
