Recommended Weight Distribution System for a 7,500 lbs Forest River NOBO 19.6 Travel Trailer
Question:
Recommended WDH for a 2022 Tahoe towing a Forest River NOBO 19.6 travel trailer?

It looks like your Forest River NOBO 19.6 travel trailer tops out at right at 7,500 lbs when it is fully loaded. Tongue weight is typically between 10% and 15% of your trailer's total weight.
For this I recommend the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control item # BLU66FR. This system has a tongue weight range of 750 lbs - 1,000 lbs which would work perfectly for your trailer.
This system includes a 2" shank and a 2-5/16" hitch ball.
I have linked a review video below.
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.
