Expert Reply:

The Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution # BXW1000 hitch incorporates sway into the frame mount brackets used to secure the chains. It uses the constant tension in the trunnions to help force the trailer in line. This is the better option if you are going to use the same weight distribution hitch with multiple trailers.

The Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution # BLU87FR uses a more traditional friction sway system. This uses the tension between the sway bars and the frame brackets to create friction that reduces sway from occurring. One downfall is it will also create more noise when maneuvering your trailer.

Both of these are rated for trailers up to 10,000lbs with the SwayPro allowing for a tongue weight of 750-1,000lbs and the TrackPro allowing for a tongue weight of 800-1,000lbs.
