I'm confident now based on your input that I should be fine.
You will be ... until you aren't. :( It may feel "fine" but dropping 400 lbs of gross tongue weight on the far rear end of such a small truck will unload the front steer axle. The question is whether this bothers you ... regardless, a properly sized & adjusted WD system will eliminate this issue. Your choice. ;)
DOOM AND GLOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I knew he would throw it...
Realistically look at your hitch, mine says if the tongue weight exceeds 350 pounds a WD hitch is required. That being said I would think that your right on the edge of one. If it were me I would load it up and see if it tows well or if yo really need a WD hitch.
