It sounds like you are looking for a weight distribution system for a 2018 K-Z Escape Mini M181SS but are having issues with ground clearance. If that is the case then the best option we have with this information would be to use a system that has trunnion spring bars as they allow for more ground clearance when compared to round spring bars.
