Weight Distribution Recommendation for 2021 Keystone Passport SL 239ML

Question

Question:

I have a 2011 F-150 Ecoboost Supercab with HDPP and Max Tow package. Truck is leveled at 1.5inch with 34inch tires. Im towing a 2021 Keystone Passport SL 239ML. Will be doing frequent trips this summer with varying ranges. Would this be a good product to look at? Im debating whether I need this or if Im okay just buying a hitch.

Hey Riley, the best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off the loaded tongue weight of the trailer. I looked up your 2021 Keystone Passport SL 239ML and it's going to have a tongue weight of around 600 lbs so Curt TruTrack 2p part # C95MJ would be a great option that is rated properly.

So any time the trailer weighs more than 50 percent of the towing capacity of the vehicle it's a great idea to use a WD system as it will reduce sag but also improve handling and braking. So in your situation you would be over that number and it would be a great idea. Have you towed with your setup yet?

I have, but it was pulling it through 25-30mph winds with a straight shank right after we bought it. Did have a little trailer sway but it was manageable, didn't know if it was more because of the weight/length or not being closer to level

@RileyS probably a little of both but mostly due to the trailer not being level and the winds. But it depends on how far out of level you were.

Hey Mark, welcome back! This is very much a case of "you get what you pay for." The Curt TruTrack 2P #C95MJ you looked at is a good option if you tow your trailer a short distance once or twice a year. If you tow with any frequency and you…

Answer 5

If the rear end of your vehicle sags significantly when the trailer is hooked up then you could have an unsafe condition and your front end and tires will not wear properly. The weight is taken off of the front wheels of the vehicle and can cause…

Answer 8

Hi Ric; using a converter that is not rated for lithium is not recommended. Your existing WFCO converter won't be able to fully charger a battery like #34282738, it could overheat, and might trip the BMS which would shut the battery down until it…
