my ford sport trac weight is 5800 lb =/- per new England dragways scales..
and what is a WDH
Hum, my Crew Cab 4WD 5.0L F150 doesn't even weigh that much. It weighs 5768 lbs. per Ford's Tread Act Tire loading sticker which is what Ford weighed it at with all the options before it left the factory.
My
2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4WD 4.6L 3V V8 truck weighed 5062 lbs with the 70# factory Hard Tonneau Cover from the factory per the Tread Act sticker once again. So actually 4992 lbs. without the tonneau cover.
I pulled my heavier 2007 Starcraft 2406 Pop Up which weighed around 2700 lbs. It pulled it like it wasn't even back there. No need for a WDH.
You may have a shock or suspension problem. Of course having the camper nose high will cause a lot of issues as well and that may be your whole problem. Time to get a ball mount in the receiver hitch and off the bumper.
Pulled the Jay Flight Travel Trailer with ease as well but obviously needed to use a WDH with that one. Was a great tow vehicle but I wanted a bigger truck with a bigger bed.
