Are you sure you really need the WDH? You've got a full size truck and a single-axle travel trailer with a GVWR of ~4000lbs.
Check if the trailer manufacturer recommends against a WDH too. Some of these single-axle trailers are not built heavy enough to withstand the forces of a WDH on the tongue.
Rather than a spring bar style WDH, you might consider a sliding-bar style with built in sway control like the Equal-I-Zer E2. These appear to be capable of a wider range of hold-up bracket locations.
