Hi Greg,
Yes, you can use your Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17499 on your 3,500 lb trailer. It is for tongue weights between 500 lbs and 800 lbs and assuming you can get to that 500 lb mark by loading some weight in the front, the system will work fine.

Hey Greg, how did things go using your Curt TruTrack system with your 3,500 lb trailer? Were you able to balance the load enough to reach that 500 lb tongue weight? Your update could make it easier for others working with a similar setup.
