You mention approximately 750 lbs. of family and gear in the vehicle, and a trailer that will most likely be pushing close to a 700 lb. tongue weight. Add another 100ish pounds for the weight distributing hitch. What is is the payload rating of the Expedition EL that you are looking at? It is on the door jamb sticker. You may likely be over that rating with your current setup. The IRS rear axle of the Expedition will not offer the same durability of a solid rear axle, like the Suburban will have.
