I would recommend getting the 1000/10000 version. I also have a 2720SL and have found the hitch weight to be around 515 lbs. To properly distribute that weight, the 600 lb WDH bars are going to be pretty close to their maximum deflection...which can lead to binding (particularly if you also have the swing away hitch option). My original Reese bars were only 550 lb rated and I could never get proper weight distribution without binding...so the tow vehicle was always nose high. I switched to 750 lb bars and solved my problem. TrailManors have substantially higher tongue weights relative to total trailer weight than most travel trailers...makes them very stable but also requires beefier weight distributing hitches.
