I did not use a WD with a 12K 1500 HW trailer on my SW3500 or dually version. Barely too 200-300 lbs off the FA.
I do admit, I generally speaking used a WD with my same size TT you have weight wise. With that said, it usually took no more than 60-100 lbs off the FA. It was as noted set pretty light tension wise.
What I did NOTICE with a WD, was the side to side rocking in side winds was lowered with a WD, and even less with a dual cam.
With the above typed, I would suggest a WD with the new truck. Needed? no
