Helpful Expert Reply:

Yes, the lower rated Replacement Spring Bar # C17073 can be used to replace the spring bars on your Curt MV Weight Distribution System # C17063 using the existing head. This will convert the system so that it's tongue weight capacity range is 800 to 1,000 pounds, comfortably matching the new tongue weight on your trailer of 875 pounds.

Please note that this comes with one spring bar so you will need to order two.
