too massive?!?

Yo! Too heavy duty. That is the question. You see I needed w
Weight Distribution hitch. I have 2 sets of bars but nothing to
Connect them to. Soooo I went to Amazon. Looking at all the pretty
Hitches. Big ones small ones. Light duty to heavy duty. I put my tounge jack on a bathroom scale. Needle went around 4 or 5 times.
Kidding about the scale part. But I have no way of knowing what
My tounge weight is
My bigger set of bars are probably around 750 lbs. But i found a hitch on Amazon for $179.00 free shipping! I bought the biggest heaviest
Beast of a hitch I've ever seen. Rated for 1.200 lbs toung weight.
I'll probably never pull a trailer that weighs 16,000 pounds!
My question is how to set up a hitch like this? It has tilt and all.
Is there any difference between this hitch and a 750lb hitch?

    Your hitch may look a bit different buts the procedure is the same.
