Weight dist system

[troda]

I have an 07 tahoe with a tow package. Bought a travel trailer today. Tounge is very low and fact hitch is super high. Looking at around an 7"-9" drop. Trailer is around 4400 lbs, TW is prob around 500 or so.
Any one know of a weight dist setup with this much drop?
Thanks Tom

Check with the folks at etrailer.com. Unless your Tahoe has been lifted, you shouldn't need that much of a drop.

I had the same problem with my enclosed race car trailer, had to get an adjustable dropout shank. The 4" drop that I used with my old tow vehicle (BMW X5) is an inch too high. But I also have a Reese Dual Cam system that's adjustable. Set it up for a 5" drop and the trailer sits level. Most trailer builders use 19.5 - 20" as the standard for the trailer coupler from the ground to the bottom of the coupler. If yours is in that range you should be fine with a 5" drop.

If you want weight distributing, the Reese Dual Cam is a combined WD and sway control system. Makes a world of difference, though not cheap.

Just make sure you get a system with the correct amount of drop you need:
