Hey Lisa, we can definitely help. The trick to picking out a weight distribution system is to find a system that has a tongue weight range that your trailer's loaded tongue weight falls right into the middle of. So an Equal-i-zer system like the part # EQ37040ET would work great based on what you mentioned as it has a tongue weight range of up to 400 lbs. The Equalizer brand of WD systems is widely regarded as the best around with also the best sway control so this will work great for you.

I am in a pickle because almost all the weight distribution hitch s are to heavy for my hitch. What do u think about the Anderson No Sway, it's approx 55lbs.
