Thanks so much for that good information, and we can get you exactly what you are looking for - a quiet weight distribution hitch that is rated correctly for your 465 lb tongue weight and provides outstanding sway control. For that the best option is from Blue Ox:
- Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution with Sway Control # BXW0550
This system, which is rated for tongue weights between 350 lbs and 550 lbs, is quiet because it is a chain-style so you won't hear the noise that comes with the bars of the friction-style systems. It is also much easier to use than other systems because once you clamp on the brackets, you insert the chains into them and just tighten them with the provided wrench. This is different than other systems where you have to measure and re-measure to get the right number of chain links.
The SwayPro # BXW0550 also has four points of sway control at the head and at the brackets which offers the best prevention you can get against trailer sway, ensuring you have the most controlled, comfortable, and safe towing experience. Another really nice feature of the SwayPro is that if you ever decide to get a different trailer with a different tongue weight, you don't have to replace the whole set up like you would with other systems, you can just replace the spring bars and you're set.
The only other thing you will need with this system is a hitch ball, either a 2" or 2-5/16" ball, depending on the size of your trailer coupler; the correct one will be either of the following:
- 2" Hitch Ball # A-90
- 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # C40008
