I am getting the Equal-i-zer WDH and I am estimating my tongue weight will be between 600-650 lbs after all is said and done.

When looking at their website on the How to Select the Correct Hitch Size for Your Trailer - http://www.equalizerhitch.com/About%20Equal-i-zer/hitchsizes.php#results it has a section asking how much weight behind the rear axle of your tow vehicle

I input the following data

Gross trailer weight @ 4800 lbs
Tongue weight @ 13% is 624 lbs
Maybe 100 lbs behind rear axles on tow vehicle

The bars for this WDH are 600 and the next is 1000 lbs

Which one would you choose?

Those inputs into that link give you the 10K/1K hitch so what is your question?:h

I guess my question is - do you go closer to what you are even if over or do you go to the next higher rating? Even if TW is 700 lbs, it is closer to 600 than 1000. I heard going to high can effect the ride.

I have ordered the 1000 lb bars but can change if they are too high a rating
