Yes, we do have installers in your area to help you with the weight distribution hitch installation. Click on the product page and look under the photos; you'll see a link "Locate installers near me". Enter in your zip code and find the nearest installer.

In regard to the weight distribution hitch itself, let me know if you don't have one picked out yet. We will need to know the weight of the trailer and approximate tongue weight, which is typically 10-15% of the loaded trailer weight. For example, the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control 8,000 lbs # FA92-00-0800 may work for you. This fits your 2" trailer hitch receiver and works with a tongue weight range of 400-800 lbs. It also reduces sway like you were wanting. Last thing you'd need with this hitch is a ball, such as # EQ91-00-6080 for 2" or # EQ91-00-6100 for 2-5/16".
