Hey Thomas, I would go with the Equal-i-zer part # EQ37120ET which is for the 1,200 lb tongue weight max. You'd be most likely at a tongue weight of 1,000 lb or so which ideally falls near the middle of the range of the weight distribution system you are using so that's why I recommended the part # EQ37120ET.

@Thomas That definitely does matter. Do you know what the trailer will weigh when it's ready to tow? If its around that weight the tongue weight of the trailer would still most likely fall into the range of the 1,200 system which is 800-1,200 lbs. I probably should have emphasized that its all really about the loaded tongue weight.
