Thanks! I do not have the air suspension. The pic was taken last year right after I got it. The hitch was put on the by the dealer and wasn't adjusted correctly. I now have it adjusted per Equalizer's instructions. I need to post a more recent pic, it's much more level now and tows great.
Any weight distribution hitch is no subsitute for a good tow vehicle and a balanced tow vehicle/trailer combination. The Equalizer hitch is a band-aid, not a solution, if it made your combination tow better.
No kidding, thanks Mr. Towing Expert. BTW, it towed okay as pictured, but tows even better with my properly adjusted "band-aid". Just because I don't have a 3/4 ton pickup doesn't mean that my Expedition is not a good tow vehicle nor does it make it an unbalanced tow vehicle/trailer combination. This is not my first time to tow a trailer, jeesh...
You should be using a weight distribution hitch of anything over 5000lb no matter what type of vehicle you are towing with. It sounds to me like somebody is desperate to justify buying and driving around in a fuel guzzler beast of a vehicle he doesn't really need...
