For a weight distribution system that has sway control, 1200lb tongue weight rating, and can be used in the 2-1/2" receiver on your 2014 Ford F-350 I recommend the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control # FA92-00-1200 which is a great weight distribution system at a great price. This system works with tongue weights ranging between 800-1200lbs, and has 2-point sway control to fight any potentioal trailer sway.
Since this system comes with a 2" shank, you will also need the Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank - 2-1/2" Hitch - 10" Rise/6" Drop # EQ90-02-4900 which will allow the system to fit in your 2-1/2" receiver with out an adapter.
Lastly the Fastway # FA92-00-1200 does not include a hitch ball so you will the 2" hitch ball # A90, or 2-5/16" hitch ball # EQ91-00-6120.
Before you purchase a weight distribution system you will want to verify the total tongue weight of your trailer which is the tongue weight of your fully loaded ready to tow trailer and any added cargo weight behind the rear axle of your F-350. I included a helpful article that goes over how to measure your total tongue weight.
If you find that your total tongue weight is over 1200lbs, I recommend moving up to the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control - 16,000 lbs GTW, 1,600 lbs TW # EQ64FR which already includes the 2-1/2" shank and hitch ball needed.
I included videos to each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
