Hello Casey, thanks for reaching out. It sounds like the 2,200 lb Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension #ASR1THDS03 will be sufficient for your build. Even if the GVWR is 1,500 lbs and your water tank is full, you would still be safely under 2,200…

The only difference between the Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler part #12564 and Demco Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler part #DM12717 is the bolt pattern which is just slightly different with one having an extra hole.
