What WDH are you using. If it is an Equalizer brand then it is not strong enough for that trailer. The 1400/14000 WDH is too small for that load.
I'm inclined to agree and I loved out Equalizer Hitch. I used their online calculator with 12900# gvwr (from website), 1935# (15% tongue weight) and 500# behind the rear axle. The results were they couldn't find a hitch so see dealer.
But I think there is more going on then just the WDH hitch.
I guess I was just trying to point out that the Equalizer is only rated for 1400 pounds TW and with trailer loaded it overloads the mfg rating by quite a bit.
