Question:

Hi I pull a boat trailer that is just under 6000 lbs fully loaded with a 2008 infiniti QX56 / nissan armada. The truck is equipped with a Curt class III, 2 inch hitch receiver etrailer p/n 13188. Which weight distributing hitch would be appropriate? I need to be able to back the trailer down boat ramps so I will need some ground clearance. The truck has recently had rear shocks and springs replaced with near stock.

Expert Reply:

For your 2008 Nissan Armada that has the Curt hitch # 13188 installed the Fastway E2 weight distribution system part # FA92-00-0800 would be a great option. It has a tongue weight range that would work well with a trailer that weighs 6000 lbs and since it's a trunnion setup it will be better on ground clearance.

Since your boat trailer has a pole tongue you would need a pole tongue adapter part # EQ95-01-5950 as well.
