Would you mind telling us what vehicle and trailer hitch you were conventional towing 18000 # without a WD hitch .
Not everyone is trying to tow a 9000lb trailer with a half ton truck or midsize SUV.
My Reese Titan receiver is rated to 18,000lbs conventional towing without a WD hitch.
Construction equipment on flatbed trailers are almost always towed without WD behind pickup trucks.
That's not to say just because they can/do means everyone else should too. If you're going across town to a job site at 35MPH, that's one thing. WD hitches have distinct advantages when you're traveling hundreds of miles at highway speeds.
