Don't know but when you say distributed evenly, the tongue weight normally sits 80% on the rear axle and 20% on the trailer axles. No tongue weight gets distributed to the front axle.
Say what??? That is the whole point of a weight distributing hitch. Properly set up a WD hitch will transfer approximately 20% of the tongue weight to the tow vehicles' front axle, and 20% back onto the trailer axles. Numbers will vary in each case of course.
As for the hitch adapter, it won't change the function of the WD hitch, just the height of the tongue. You will have to adjust the hitch accordingly.
That being said, I would not use that with a WD hitch. It is not designed to handle added stress. Straight from the listing;
"Perfect for regular hitches, cargo carriers and equipment using a 2" hitch receiver"
What you need is an adjustable shank like this. Most WD hitches are adjustable, is yours not?
