The correct Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System for a 2023 Airstream Flying Cloud 23FB is part # BXW0756. This system is rated up to 750 lbs of tongue weight. I show the unloaded tongue weight of this trailer to be 500 lbs. The tongue weight will increase when you load the trailer so that should put you right in the sweet spot for this system which will lead to the best performance. We actually tested all our weight distribution systems extensively and found the Blue Ox SwayPro to be the best option for the money, so you made a great choice. It's unmatched in sway control prevention and reduction.

Hey Bryan, that's a good question. The pricing can definitely be misleading, but I wouldn't use it to judge the quality of the tire. A lot of that comes down to promotions, inventory, and whether you're looking at a tire by itself or…
