Hello Chris,
If you’re looking for a weight distribution hitch (WDH) for your Bravo aluminum enclosed trailer, the first and most important step is to make sure Bravo approves the use of a WD system on your specific trailer. Some aluminum frames can’t handle the added stress that a WD setup applies, so it’s best to double-check directly with Bravo using your VIN before moving forward. Once you get the green light, the next step is choosing a system that fits your trailer’s strength and design while keeping corrosion and frame stress in mind.
A great option is the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17500. It’s built to handle up to 10,000 lbs gross trailer weight and 1,000 lbs tongue weight, and it combines weight distribution with built-in sway control for a really stable towing experience. The TruTrack uses heavy-duty steel spring bars with a durable powder coat finish, and all of the included hardware is zinc-plated, so it’s well protected against rust and surface corrosion.
As with any WD setup, it’s also important to make sure your trailer’s tongue weight falls within the hitch’s range and that your brackets are mounted in a way that doesn’t stress the aluminum frame. Once you know your loaded tongue weight, I can help you confirm whether this Curt system is the right fit, or if we should adjust to a heavier or lighter rated option to match your trailer’s exact specs.
Did you already get the OK from Bravo? What is your loaded tongue weight?

Hey Chris, did you get confirmation from Bravo about using a weight distribution hitch on your aluminum trailer? I’m curious if the Curt TruTrack ended up being a good match once you checked your tongue weight. Your update could make it easier for others with similar trailers.
