Borninblue,
Just read this thread today and I have a headache. Too much verbiage for such a simple concept. I am towing a slightly lighter trailer with my Tundra and use the 10,000/1,000 Equalizer and it works great.
Your 3/4 ton will not have any trouble with this setup. If your carrying capacity is around 2600 you will be fine. Think of it this way. When you are getting ready to go think of how much you will put in or on the truck. 1000 pounds of tongue weight brings you down to 1600 pounds. You, the wife and kids will most likely leave you with 1100 pounds. Wow, you still have a lot that you can load in the back.
My Tundra leaves me only 1600. Once the trailer is on the ball and the wife and I are in our seats we have a scant couple of hundred left. We make it just fine and you will too.
