Yes you do.
You can tow without it but I guarantee it will handle better, bounce less and move around less with a proper WDH.
A friend of mine also has a Ram 3500 and bought a 7K# TT. Because it was his first trailer and he knows I've been towing so long, he took my word that he needed a wdh even though it towed home from the dealership OK.
He was shocked at the difference in ride it made to get the WDH set up. The truck was much more stable and needed less steering input. It also rode better. He could tell all this in a manner of a few blocks!
So yes, you should get one.
