Do I need my WD bars just to move in the driveway?

My F150 is rated for 5,000 lbs before needing a Weight Distribution hitch, and my trailer is supposedly 4900 dry. We don't have much in there right now (not even mattresses) and it's winterized, so no...

And...without WD bars, it will be easier to make tight twists and turns while backing into tight spots. After awhile, you can start collecting style points --for perfectly aligning your TT with driveway's edge. Geometric perfection is a sweet sight.
