weight distribution hitch?
my brother is looking at buying smaller single axle TT. Only 18 ft total length, and 3200 gross weight. He knows he will have to add a brake controller to his F150, but will he need to use WD type hit...

You need to determine if the TT was even made to use a WD hitch. Lighter ones have lighter frames. My wife's uncle has a 18 Jayco. He tows it behind a Toyota Tacoma with the "heavy" tow package. He likes it much better after he added air bags to level it out.
I towed it to Yellowstone and back behind my F450 loaded with my TC. I could barely tell it was there and could only even see it on turns. Still, he wanted to use his sway control that hooks to the hitch. For my truck, I couldn't tell if the sway control was tightened down or not. He likes that addition as well.
Based on his experience, I'd say get the sway control and possibly airbags, supersprings, sumosprings, or timbrens to make sure it is reasonably level.
