Leveling and sway kit for a Micro Minnie 2306BHS

I am new to the world RVing and recently purchased a winnebago 2306BHS. The dealer told me that a Equalizer 4 pt sway controller was me best choice. I have read too much regarding other so many other options and now I am not sure. Looking to the Winnie community for some direction.
I drive a 2018 Ford Expedition 4x4 with heavy duty tow pkg. (It will have no problem with the tow).
The Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch has been suggested as a great option. Question is will this work, well, for both level and sway? are there other options that are much better that dont cost an arm and leg like the ProPride.

I have no recommendation for the brand of weight-distributing hitch. I do recommend this excellent article/ tutorial for how to properly set-up a weight-distributing hitch.

Equilizer, Anderson, Husky Centerline, and others. They pretty much do the same thing: sway control and weight distribution. And, from what I hear they all do a good job.

I used a Husky Cenerline and I think it was great. But then, I never
tried the others.

Oh, and I towed with a Ford Expedition EL with factory tow package.

Decided to give the propride P3 a try. I know that it's pricey but I'm going to be doing some long hunting trips over a lot of miles and I wanted to try the best first

No Sway and don't have to relieve the tension when backing up. Will be traveling over 10,000 miles during the next two years, I'd say it's worth the price and some might say an investment. Just my take though.

Your TV has a 122” wheelbase. Because you tv is more than capable of towing the trailer in all other respects, wheelbase is the biggest factor. It’s kinda short, but very doable with a good WDH that has built in anti-sway. All of the above mentioned are good. IMHO PP is overkill in price to value ratio, considering most others will get the job done. I have a Husky Centerline with 128” wheelbase which works great. No problem backing up. Most on forum really like Anderson. For best performance, get professional installation with TV loaded close to the normal camping load.
