The folks in the Folding Trailer forum have started a fun topic, so I thought perhaps we could do the same. I'll start.

Hi, In response to getting the larger capacity Equal I Zer for your HTT.

I called them direct and asked if I went a larger size would it change anything.

The straight answer was no. I also asked if I went 2 sizes up would it matter. He said yes, that being the PRICE... Why pay for more than you need he explained..

Basically going larger has no effect on the sway or level control, undersizing definitely does.

Come on I know someone has a different opinion...... Let's hear it...

Dont get me wrong, I don't believe everything I am told, but the above statements make sense.

Ditto.....I also called direct when I thought the dealer put a larger Equalizer then I needed. He said it made no difference what so ever, and would not have a stiffer ride as some on this board have suggested.

In the research I was doing on WDs I found the same to be true. If you go to big, all you are doing is throwing $$$ into the wind. You want to get as close to your weight as possible. Think of it like shoes...yea you can get shoes bigger than your feet, but it'll They will be sloppy and you gain nothing.

This is our first, been tent camping my entire life. The wife and I have been talking about getting a TT for about 2 years and pulled the trigger about 3 weeks ago on this 2008 Surveyor SV210T. Here's picture #1, I'll be adding more after we take it on its inaugural trip this weekend. The boys have been camping in it all week in the driveway!

Thats what I was kinda thing about the 600/6000 Egualizer. But the tech said that they did not have any problems with going up 1 size to the 1000/10000. He said that you run into problems when you go up 2 sizes to the 1200/12000. We are like you and not planning on getting a bigger camper. What are you using for a TV?

I called Equalizer and they advised to go with the 1000/10000. Said there was only a 1/4 inch diff in the bar size. What do you think?

A good friend recommended the 600/6000 for the Shamrock 19. As the GVWR is under 4600# he suggested the towing experience would be better and more comfortable - not as bouncy and better suited for the size and weight - also we have absolutely no plan to go bigger at all.

For me that made sense.
