Adding more weight seems a bit backwards to me. If the trailer tows fine without the MC on the back, then you know it is out of balance. Move the fulcrum(aka axles) and be done with it. Enjoy the rest to the summer. Front over hang/pin box connection may not like the additional weight.

I've never done it, obviously, but moving axles 20" or whatever, seems not so simple. What do you do with the wheel wells? Cutting and moving spring hangers is one thing, bodywork and paint is another. Clearing slide hardware, utility lines, hydraulic brake lines for his disk brakes...
Less dramatic than adding a 3rd axle. Moving axles back 20" verse another axle that will extend 34-35" inches behind the exiting axles. J panels will have to be altered either way.
