• Solution for a Shank on a Equal-i-zer WDS That Drags When Backing Up
  Yes, using a shorter shank for your WDS would eliminate the dragging you're experiencing. To get you set up, I'd need to know the current length of your shank, the tongue weight of the shank, and approximately how much shorter you'd wager it'd need to be. For instance, if you had the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank # FA92-02-4214 you'd definitely see a benefit in your situation if you used the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Shank # FA92-02-4100.

  There are other shanks you can use that offer more drop so you can tow the trailer level. For example shank # EQ90-02-4400 offers up to 9 inches of drop. To determine the amount of drop you will need there are a couple of measurements to take. First, level the trailer and measure from the ground to the bottom of the coupler. On the truck measure from the ground to the top of the receiver opening. The difference will be the amount of drop you will need.

You'll want to ensure that the tongue weight figure you're going off of includes the weight of anything stowed in the bed of the truck behind the rear axle. As far as a shank goes, the shank needed will depend on the height difference between...

• How to Determine What Rise/Drop That is Needed for Weight Distribution System

• Equipping 2019 Kia Sedona LX For Towing 3200 lb Pop-Up Camper
  You can indeed use weight distribution with your 2019 Kia Sedona, and the hitches we offer for it are rated for use with weight distribution systems. First, let's make sure your Sedona is equipped for towing, if it isn't already. For a hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III, part # C13115.

You'll also need a brake controller to actuate the trailer brakes....
