Question:
I just bought a 2016 Forest River Grey Wolf 26BH, the reported tongue weight from the manufacturer is 402lbs, with a 7500lb GVWR. Which Blue Ox Sway Pro or TrackPro should I get? Also I have a 2017 F350 tow vehicle. My goal is to reduce sway as much as possible.

Expert Reply:
With the weights of your 2016 Forest River Grey Wolf 26BH I am going to recommend going with the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0800. It is rated for tongue weights of 400-800lbs and a trailer weight up to 8,000lbs. You will need a 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # EQ91-00-6100 and a 1-7/8" 12pt Thin Walled Socket # ALL643216 to complete the installation of the hitch.
The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution # BXW0756 is rated for tongue weights of 550-750lbs and a maximum trailer weight of 7,500lbs. And the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution # BLU67FR is rated for tongue weights of 600-800lbs. Both of these require a tongue weight higher than you base tongue weight which is outside the manufacturer specification and will not allow the hitch to function properly.
