Against the better advice and instructions from all the numbers crunchers. (My wife would go bananas if I was out there counting every box of cheerios and where it was placed within the rig,lol! But I do secretly take sh t back out of the camper when she's not looking, haha)
8000lb trailer with 960lbs tongue weight on the hitch is child's play for your truck, trailer hitch receiver included, especially with the 2-1/2" receiver. Leaving out all the stories of how much I and a million other people haul on a trailer hitch every day without issue, I'll say it's not breaking a sweat supporting your trailer, nor will it.
You also have to remember the rvnet #1 rule.... If it has wheels in back and a hitch on the front, you MUST use a wdh!! NO exceptions. Lol
Don't be surprised if your account gets shut down since you've admitted towing without a wdh...
