Question:
2016 Toyota Sequoia towing 2006 Fleetwood Niagara pop-up. GVW 3,700#. Trailer frame 2 1/4x3. Using Camco EZ Lift sway control. Is Curt 17057 best product, or 17051? Or some other product?

Helpful Expert Reply:
With a weight distribution system, you want to choose a system based on the fully loaded and ready to tow tongue weight of the trailer. I'll link you to a help article that explains how to determine your fully loaded tongue weight, but since you've provided the GVWR (thanks for that, by the way!) we can make a pretty darn accurate educated guess.
With a GVWR of 3700 lbs, the tongue weight of your pop-up will range from 370 lbs on the low side to as much as 550 lbs. Both the Curt # C17057 and the # C17051 are rated too high for your camper, you'd have a very rough ride if you went with either of those.
I'd recommend the Curt MV, part # C17050 which is rated for up to 600 lbs of trailer tongue weight, which would be perfect for your Fleetwood Niagara. The kit includes the height adjustable shank, but you'll need to pick up a 2 inch trailer ball with a 1-1/4 inch diameter shank like # A-90.
