Question:
My loaded tongue weight, with payload, is just over 700lbs. I plan to upgrade to a bigger trailer next year. My question is, the specs show “Specs: Tongue weight: 600 lbs - 1,000 lbs Gross towing weight: 10,000 lbs” for this WD hitch. Will this work with 700lbs ok?

If your loaded tongue weight plus the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of your tow vehicle is within the 600 lbs - 1,000 lbs tongue weight range of the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System # FA94-00-1061 then yes, it is right where you need it to be.
Just be mindful that if you will be upgrading to a trailer that is quite a bit bigger then you may be better off going with the trunnion bar system # FA92-00-1000 instead. This will allow you to simply swap out the bars with part # FA92-02-1299. This will give you the system # FA92-00-1200 which has a tongue weight range of 800 lbs - 1,200 lbs.
