Question Looking for a good hitch...

I am new to Diesels and towing, but have a pretty good idea of what I want thanks in significant part to this site! Now all I have to figure out is how to best connect my signature truck and trailer. Any make/model or type recommendations for a weight distributing hitch with sway control? General comments about my tentative selections would also be greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your help!

The factory hitch receiver should work for that trailer. You'll have to get a weight distubution (WD) setup and optionally an anti-sway setup. There are several sources for this (Reese, Draw-Tite, etc.).

If you want the option of pulling it without WD, get a class V receiver like the Reese Titan or Putnam XDR. The Titan bolts on under the factory hitch.
