We can absolutely get your 2021 Keystone RV Springdale 1860SS set up with a weight distribution hitch with sway control. And for your camper, which has a 5,000 GVWR, the option I highly recommend is from Fastway:

- Fastway e2 Weight Distribution with 2-Point Sway Control # FA92-00-0800

The reason I like the Fastway more than any other option for your Keystone is because it is the overall best value among weight distribution hitches; it offers high quality at a price that is better than similar options.

The # FA92-00-0800 is for loaded tongue weights between 400 lbs and 800 lbs, which your Keystone is right in the middle of. So it rated perfectly for your camper, which is one of the reasons it will give you excellent sway control. It controls sway via by friction at two points on the brackets to give you a more controlled, safer ride than similar options that won't reduce sway as much.

The e2 is also easier to set up than other systems, particularly those that use chains, saving you a lot of of time. It also comes with everything you need except the hitch ball, and for that the right fit is the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # EQ91-00-6100.

Yes it will; since it has a tongue weight range of 600 lbs to 800 lbs, you can use the Blue Ox TrackPro: - Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution with Sway Control # BLU47FR The # BLU47FR does come with the 2-5/16" hitch ball as well as a shank that offers a maximum rise of 8 inches and maximum drop of 2 inches. So if you needed more rise or drop than the 6-1/4 inch rise or 1/2 inch drop of the Fastway, you're right that this would be the better option so you don't have to get a new shank as well.

The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System part #BXW0750 which is rated for 550 lbs - 750 lbs is what I recommend for a trailer with 550 lb tongue weight and around 100 lbs in the truck bed. In regards to choosing the best weight distribution…

The Reese weight distribution system part #RE94FR is the best value for your Rockwood Geo 19FD and would be what I would go with if I were you. It's just as effective as the Fastway e2 part #FA94-00-0600 but at a much better price.
