Hey Mark, thanks for providing all the details!

I see you ordered the 18.5K Weigh Safe True Tow Weight Distribution Hitch (WDH) # WS49MR. This might be a little heavy for your application, but if you have your trailer weighed down to the GVWR and a 15% tongue weight you should be fine.

I am a little interested that you went with a WDH with a 6" drop when your old WDH had a 9" drop/rise. Does your new camper sit higher than your old camper?

Hey Mark, I'm curious if the 18.5K Weigh Safe True Tow WDH worked well for your setup with the Stealth Nomad toy hauler. Did the 6-inch drop fit your needs, or did you find any issues with the height difference compared to your old setup? I'm asking to see if your experience could help others in a similar situation.

@JonG. The hitch has worked actually great. I could have gotten by with the lighter size for sure. Your personnel before you replied stated never hurts to go bigger so that’s why I did. The 6” drop / rise has worked also. I could have done the 3-5 “ one. I really like the ability to dial in the weight.
