If your hitch and vehicle are rated at 6250+ with no weight distribution I would give it a go.
Every day you will see a dump truck or other HD vehicle with no W/D and it does fine because it is rated accordingly.
My hitch says 5000 max unless W/D is used.
hitch receiver also likely has two tongue weight limits. weight carrying and weight distribution. Often the weight carrying limit is in the 500lb range while weight carrying can be in the 1500lb range.
weight carrying puts different loads on the receiver mounts than weight carrying does.
