I'll be towing a Jayflight slx 294 qbsw. Dry hitch weight is 780, trailer dry is 6480, Gvw is 8250. I want something a little bigger just so I won't need to buy another one if we ever get bigger trailer.
I have Reese with tounge weight of 1000lbs and 10000 gross. It has sway arm so I can't back up with it. Also I'm towing with ram 1500 hemi not sure if that helps.
GVW of a bunk bed trailer this size, loaded and ready to camp, is sure to be awfully close to 8000 lbs with at least 1000+ lbs of gross tongue weight which is already too much for a stock Ram 1500 ... and you may want to later go even bigger?! :E
Regardless, one feature of the Blue Ox Sway Pro is that changing from weight class to another is as simple as swapping out the spring bars, all other parts remain the same.
