Yes, the Blue Ox 2-Point Weight Distribution # BLU75FR is going to be the correct hitch for towing your 2023 Keystone Springdale 282BH. This hitch is rated for a trailer with 800-1,200lbs of tongue weight and a GVWR of 12,000lbs or less. The dry tongue weight on your trailer is 690lbs from the factory. Once the dealer installs a 50lb battery and fills the two 20lb propane tanks this will quickly increase your tongue weight to roughly 780lbs. As your main cargo area is also on the front of the camper your additional camping gear and supplies will easily push you over the 800lbs the Blue Ox is rated for.
