Question:
Im looking for a product recommendation. I have a pole tongue 23 enclosed trailer, tandem axle spread GVWR 7000 lbs and trailer weight of 2570 lbs. With my snowmobiles loaded in the trailer I have 500 lbs tongue weight. I weigh 200 lbs and if I stand in the nose of the trailer I have 600 lbs tongue weight. I am most concerned with sway control, I have air bags on my 2017 F150

Expert Reply:
The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System part # BXW0550 is a great option for a trailer with 500 lbs of tongue weight. It has industry leading sway control as well as weight distributing properties. It can be installed on a pole tongue trailer using the Blue Ox Pole Tongue Weight Distributing Hitch Adapter part # BXW4023 so long as the tongue is between 2-3/4" to 4-1/2" wide and 3" to 6" tall. This system is completely bolt-on with no modifications required. The pole tongue adapter installs 29" back from the coupler.
