I agree, the Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control item # RP66084 you were looking at would be a great system to use with your trailer. If you're going to be pulling around 4,000 lbs and your trailer weighs 3,400 lbs then this would put your tongue weight between 740 lbs and 1,100 lbs. The Reese Strait-line system has a tongue weight range of 600 lbs- 1,200 lbs. This would give you plenty of capacity and not be too much to cause a stiff ridged ride.
