Too Much?
I have purchased a new, to me, a 24ft TT GVW is 6000 lbs. A friend has gifted me an Equalizer hitch with a rating of 14,000 lbs. that he no longer needs. Will this hitch work with my TT ? Am I over...

Is it truly an Equal-i-zer hitch or are you meaning a weight distribution hitch?
If it is an Equal-i-zer hitch you will have to set it loose which means you won't get much anti-sway assistance.
If it takes 200~lbs per bar to bring the front back to unloaded height, that's what it takes regardless which bars are used. Pressure and friction will be the same. The heavier bars simply won't flex as much.
Exactly they won’t flex as much, but something else will. And by the time you find out what else flexed the damage will have been done. Which is why you match the hitch to the trailer!
Can't disagree with that. You can have too much hitch as well as too much truck. Seems where the tongue's A frame joins the trailer's chassis is where the stress takes it's toll.
