Question:
I build a rv/toy hauler out of a 28foot enclosed trailer. Its a heavy trailer with 1500 pounds of TW empty. I dont know the TW with my truck in it but it sits above the axles. Dont know if I should get the 1500 or the 2000 hitch

Expert Reply:
I recommend the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution # BXW2000 for your trailer as this system is rated for 1,500-2,000lbs of tongue weight. Be sure not to exceed the 2,000lbs of tongue weight or 20,000lbs of total trailer weight.
The lighter system # BXW1500 is rated for a maximum tongue weight of 1,500lbs so you have already maxed out this system before you added any weight to it.
