Do you need a weight distribution system? There are many variables. As a general rule, if your trailer gross weight after your stuff is load is more than 50% of the tow vehicle weight, you should have one. If the rear tires on the tow rig has soft side walls this can induce a sway where it can help to have one. If after loading the trailer and the tounge weight is more than 10% of the total trailer weight, it can help. Many other variables. If in doubt, it will not hurt anything other than the pocket book to have it. The sway bar also falls into play.
