Weight Distribution Solution for 2017 Somerset Evolution E3

Question:

Hello - I am considering/ interested in purchasing a Blue Ox SwayPro like # BXW1000 although I am still trying to figure out my loaded tongue weight as my camper has a front deck that will fit everything up to and including ATVs. I guess, in general, I am wondering if one of the weight distribution hitches from Blue Ox will work with my camper frame see attached pictures when the frame hang on clamp would not be in line with the coupler. At 29 inches back from coupler, which is where the clamp on piece needs to be attached to the frame, the frame is 9 inches high and 2 inches thick. I just wasnt sure if the clamp on piece needed to be more in-line same plane as the coupler. Or maybe I would just need a longer chain to accommodate this setup? Any insight would be most helpful. My camper is a 2017 Somerset Evolution E3 w/ Deck if that helps. Thank you in advance,

We do have a weight distribution solution that will work well on your 2017 Somerset Evolution E3 w/ Deck but due to the limited clearance on the trailer frame where the chain hangers would attach you'd have to go with a set of bolt on weight distribution chain hangers like the # RP58305 which attach only to the side of the frame.

You'll have to use a Reese weight distribution system with these hangers. Which I attached a link to a page that has all of the ones we offer. You'd need to select your tongue weight once you have that info and the correct options will be listed. Or you can get back to me with the tongue weight and I'll see what best option is.
