I'm going to go with the equalizer 1,200 and 12,000lbs bar.
I believe you will be very happy with your choice. I have an Equalizer 10k for our 2017 Jayco 28RLS. Works great and rides nice. While lubing the socket pivot points after tightening the socket bolts to 65ft/lbs as per the owner's manual, I break all the rules of planetary alignment and smear a dab of grease on the L bracket surfaces as well. This works well for me in keeping it smooth and quiet while still offering me enough control to eliminate waggle from passing trucks. The right thing to do would be to install Bracket Jackets but I prefer a dab of grease. Others may need the full friction of dry L brackets as is recommended in the owner's manual.
