Hey Greg! Yes, the Weigh Safe True Tow Weight Distribution Hitch - 2" Shank - 8" Drop - 12.5K GTW, 1.2K TW # WS82ZR is the one you want based on those specs. You're pushing the limits of the tongue weight on the # WS79VR so it is best to move up to the next rating. The True Tow is a really great system that is easy adjust so everything is set perfectly each time you're towing. I highly recommend it.

Hey Greg, how did the True Tow hitch work out with your trailer setup? The adjustable design should make dialing in your weight distribution pretty smooth. Your update could make it easier for others towing similar trailers.
