Question:

My wife and I are wanting to buy a camper that will be about 3000lbs empty with a GVW of 3800lbs. Our 2015 ford flex is capable of handling 400lbs of tongue weight and 4500lbs GVW. What weight distribution system would you recommend. I am concerned with ground clearance as well.

Expert Reply:

As long as you have a trailer hitch installed on your 2015 Ford Flex that is rated for use with WD systems you would want to go with the # RP66082.

This system has a tongue weight range of 200 to 600 lbs and features the only sway control on the market designed to fight sway before it starts.

For a 2 inch ball you would want part # A-90 and for a 2-5/16 inch ball # 19286.

Our current hitches, # 13551 and # e95KR are not rated for weight distribution.
