2005 F 150 weight dist hitch
I have a 2005 F150 5.4 with 3.73, supercrew, with towing package. We have towed a 24' travel trailer weighing about 5500 lbs loaded. Buying a new wildcat this week and need a weight distributing hitch. Dry weight is 7300 with a unloaded tongue of 785. I need to get a new WDH as we sold the last one with the trailer. All of our towing is relatively in flat lands and 2-3 hours away at max. I know the truck can haul the weight properly distributed I just wonder which hitch is the best value for the money. The dealer offered a Fastway E2 installed for $560. We used to have a EAZ Lift rated at 10,000 it worked fine, one time hauling a dump trailer i got a horrible sway but the WDH was not installed.
Thanks for the help.

Although the Reese Dual Cam is supposed to work well when installed right, have heard that it's a more difficult install, with two brackets on each side (one drilled into the frame), and the tension bars can hang quite a bit lower too.
