What is the trailer’s tongue weight fully loaded and wet? What is max hitch weight per your Chevrolet owner’s manual? I predict no weight distributIon is necessary. It isn’t on my 2019 1500 and 5200 pound travel trailer.
No prediction needed. My 1974 CJ5 wouldn’t need a wdh to pull this.
This is a simple case of someone who doesn’t understand towing or high school physics. That’s ok. And now he knows that he needs to spend $0 on any of that stuff to tow happily and safely.
Upside is he’s starting out small, unlike some who ask these questions about some 36 footer and a base model F150 and you really wonder if they are actually going to make it to the first destination rubber side down.
$20 days the dealer tried to sell him the whole shootin match for this small lightweight trailer and he was at least savvy enough to not bite on the sucker deal.

Yeah dude, you’re good. If you got good trailer brakes you’re golden.
The mixed reviews are from handwringers and geezers who think pulling a trailer down the road is something special.
