Looking for some insight on a recommended weight distributing hitch with sway control to pull our 1979 31'
Sovereign with our 2011 Expedition EL Limited. We haven't towed it anywhere yet other than to the tire shop and home so far. It came with an old Reese hitch (probably original) that does have weight distribution and sway control, but we need to upgrade to one with a drop hitch because there's way too much weight on the rear axle of the trailer with our current setup. So far, we have looked into the Blue Ox Sway Pro and the Reese Pro Series with Sway Control. The Blue Ox is impressive, but is not really in our budget and the Pro Series is much more affordable. Anyone have experience with the Pro Series? Any insight on which weight limit to get (750lbs vs. 1000lbs.)? We are concerned about getting something that's too stiff and destroying the trailer but worry that the 750lb may just barely be enough, when we are fully loaded down with gear for a family of 4.
Thanks in advance for the advice! If there are recommendations for other hitches not mentioned that are more budget friendly we'd love to hear them!
