Andersen hitch doesn't suit, any other recommendations?

Time to replace my old WD hitch. I'm towing an 8,500lb 36' trailer with about 1,100lb tongue weight. Any experience with Andersen No Sway hitches? It sounds like it might be just what I'm after. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Edit: Seems I have too much tongue weight for Andersen to work well. Looking for recommendations.

    Some years back a good thread on the subject revealed that when going above 700 or so lbs of tongue weight the Andersen didn’t have enough leverage to level the rig. I used one for a couple years with a 2700 lb (350 hitch wt) TT and liked it (but it sold with the TT).
