Here are the dry weights of truck from GMC

Curb Weight - Rear 2098 lbs
A difference of 1,078 lbs
so I am more evenly distributed with the trailer attached. than with out. Hum?
Based on these numbers and your hooked up number your WDH is too tight. Check GM's instructions for WDH setup. After connecting you should not have anymore weight on the front than you did prior to connecting. Need to loosen up the WDH hitch a bit.
The front axle is 300 lbs more with the trailer than without. That is restoring more weight than was lost.
