Tom, for your Neo Nam trailer I recommend adding a weight distribution system like the Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # RP66560. I did some research and it looks like this system will work great for you, but you're going to want to make sure.

What you'll need to do is get your trailer loaded up like you're heading out and get it weighed. Doing this will get your total tongue weight which is what you need to pick out a WDS.

Ideally a WDS would have your total tongue weight right around the middle of the range so keep that in mind. But normally it's not advised to use a WDS with an aluminum frame because it requires you to drill into the frame, but this system uses clamp on brackets so there'll be no drilling required.
