Yes, we do Henry! 10% - 15% of your trailer's total weight is what's recommended. I have linked a faq article below that will give you a bunch of information on selecting a weight distribution hitch.
If you would like a recommendation, I would just need to know your trailer's total weight capacity when loaded and what size hitch your tow vehicle has. You can comment this information below or email me directly.
