Don't worry your 1200# bars will be just right for your 7000# TT. A full loaded 7000# class TT will add about 1050# (7000 X .15) to you TV. The WDH will distribute that weight onto both steering and drive axles of the TV when it's properly adjusted. Be sure to have your dealer install and adjust the WDH (experience counts) and your brake controller.
When you have the TT fully loaded on your first camping trip, have your rig weighed at a CAT scale to be sure the WDH is properly adjusted. See the CAT scale website for info on how to correctly weigh your rig.
Enjoy!
