and there is no need for "WD" when you are parking the darn thing! ;)
Good luck with your situation.

Thanks but there is a need for WD because the receiver hitch is only rated for 500 lbs when using a weight bearing hitch and this will cause 50% of my rear axle weight to increase by pulling more weight off of the front. Not a big deal if you are not loaded up but if you are, you could exceed your axle ratings and damage your leaf springs. I've seen people do these things so when you're using a WDH, it's for a reason.
