Expert Reply:
We have a large selection of weight distribution systems available that feature integrated sway control.
The most important factor to consider when choosing the best weight distribution system is the total tongue weight of your towing setup. This number includes both the loaded tongue weight of your trailer, along with any added cargo weight coming from behind the rear axle of your Yukon. Ideally, your total tongue weight will fall somewhere near the middle of the operating range on the system you choose. I recommend using a tongue weight scale like the etrailer # e99044 to verify your trailer's tongue weight when it is fully loaded and ready for a trip.
For example, the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37100ET has a tongue weight capacity of 600 to 1,000 pounds and would be perfect for a total tongue weight that falls comfortably within that range.
I have attached a link that will take you to our available selection of weight distribution systems. You can filter though the different capacities by using the filters on the left side of the page. I have also included a great article on weight distribution systems that you might find helpful.
If you are also needing a trailer hitch for your vehicle, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13402. This Class III hitch is confirmed to fit your 2002 GMC Yukon and will use existing holes in the vehicle's frame for a no-drill installation. I have attached the complete installation instructions that you can take a look at.
