Greetings,

I'm just in the process of buying a 2021 22 MLE. We are downsizing from a 35 foot Jayco 32 BHDS that I tow with a ProPride hitch, so I'm not a beginner. However, I'm thinking about a lighter hitch for the 22 MLE. My truck is quite capable, as it's a 2018 Ram 3500 diesel, so I don't foresee any trouble towing.

I'm looking for advice on what hitch to pick. I've always liked the Equalizer brand hitch, but there are so many new hitches out there. Are the 1200 pound bars too heavy for this trailer?

Also, I will be picking it up 3 hours away and I'm thinking about using a Reese hitch I have from a previous trailer, 1200 pound bars, and no added sway control, for the drive home. Anyone think that is a bad idea? If it were closer, I'd probably not worry about the hitch I use for towing it home

Thanks, Drew
