Expert Reply:
I can certainly point you in the right direction here. I will stary by saying that after looking over pictures of the 2024 Airstream 30RB, I have concerns about the placement of the propane tanks on the tongue. In order to use the B&W Continuum # BW78FR there must be at least 2" of open space behind the coupler. The mounting location behind the coupler requires the distance between the frame rails to be between 6” and 9”. It appears that the propane tanks and cover would obstruct the mounting location.
It may be possible to use a different brand of weight distribution hitch. Since Airstream does not list these kind of specs online, we will need you to take some measurements of the trailer tongue to see where we have room to mount brackets. You can start from the center of the hitch ball and measure along the A-frame. For example the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System # BXW1006 requires the lift brackets to be placed on the A-frame 29" back from the hitch ball. If you can take a tape measure to the trailer tongue, this will give us a really good idea of what weight distribution hitch you can use.
