Hello Jared,

Thanks for writing in!

With a loaded tongue weight of 1,150 lbs and a GVWR of 9,692 lbs, the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control - 12,000 lbs GTW, 1,200 lbs TW # EQ37120ET is exactly what you need. I attached an image of one installed.

The most important number when choosing a weight distribution hitch is the loaded tongue weight, and the # EQ37120ET is rated right where you need it to be. That will give you the best weight distribution along with excellent built-in sway control, making it a great match for your trailer.

What kind of trailer are you using this on?
