Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control - Trunnion - 6K GTW, 600 TW

(239)

$708.49

Question:

My trailer has TW of 430lb, and I plan to have 100-200lb of gear in my truck bed, will this be a good unit for that without being oversized and causing the trailer to be bouncy while towing?

Expert Reply:

The Blue Ox 2-Point Weight Distribution system you're looking at would work fine but I don't think you're going to need a system that big.

I recommend checking out the Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # RP66558 instead. This system has a tongue weight range of 400-600 lbs which seems like it'll be much better suited for you.

I do still recommend loading your trailer as if you were heading out and having your trailer weighed to get the official tongue weight to get a more accurate system.

Thank you. If I'm looking in the 500-600 lb tongue rating devices, how does the Reese # RE34FR compare?

@Robb Great question Robb, the Reese # RE34FR you're referring too will work just fine. This one has a bit more tongue weight range (200 lbs to 600 lbs) but has the same gross trailer weight capacity at 6K.
