I think you should forget about the weight transfer to the front axle. with that truck, you don't need it.
Instead, look at where your headlights are pointing when the trailer is hooked up. Are you blinding oncoming drivers even on low beam? THAT is what the WD systems were originally invented for!
Long ago, I had a 19 foot TT that I towed with three different vehicles. I did not use a WD hitch on the Ford E150 Club Wagon. It was not needed.
I did not use a WD hitch on the Dodge 3/4 ton. It was not needed.
I HAD to use a WD hitch on the Jeep Wagoneer! It was an absolute necessity to keep the back bumper off the ground, and the headlights on the road where they belonged.
