Best Weight Distribution System for a MAC 206 LTD Folding Camper
Question:
Hi. Just purchased a new MAC 206 ltd pop up. I’m towing it with a 2013 Toyota Sienna minivan. Well with in the tow limit of the van. Trailer only weighs 1700 lbs. But the tongue weight is around 260 lbs. Rear of the van sags. I’d like to use the Equalizer EQ37040ET . It says it’s light weight and specially designed for pop ups and light weight trailers. Anyone have experience with these?

The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control item # EQ37040ET will work great with your MAC 206 LTD pop up. It looks like your folding camper has a maximum capacity when fully loaded of 2,300 lbs. That would put your tongue weight between 230 lbs - 345 lbs. This system has a tongue weight range of up to 400 lbs and a maximum capacity of 4,000 lbs. The Reese Steadi-Flex would solve the sagging issues you are experiencing with your Sienna.
I also recommend the Classic Accessories Tow Bar and Weight Distribution Tote item # CA80113. This heavy duty bag is perfect for storing your weight distributing hitch. It is 36" x 11" Wide x 8" Tall and has padding that prevents damage to your hitch and prevents dings to your vehicle's cargo area from shifting gear.
