At what point do I need a WD hitch?
I have a '13 Ford F150 "heavy half" I am having some issues when i tow and someone told me I should get a WD hitch. My question is, at what weight with a stock half ton do you need to think abou...

The main specification is from your TV’s OEM and is mostly a whole system’s spec with sub system and component specs
You will need to have actual, loaded weight numbers of each axle. Then it is simple math using the OEMs instructions
Like the TV receiver and it’s two specifications. 1 for dead weight and other for use with a WD Hitch
Then there will be a spec to return the TVs front to some number, height or weighting
The WD hitch has several specs and you will need the trailers actual weights
The final trailer orientation should be pointing level or slightly down
The trailers actual tongue weight must be in the equal to or more than 12% of the actual trailer to hue weight. This one is moo-shy, as some trailers tow just fine with less and some needs more
Good luck
