The trailer tire pressure is maxed out at 65 PSI.

Actually came back from the test drive.
Inflated the TV's tire pressure to the max(50 PSI), the ride was very unsafe. Even worse than before. A lot of side-to-side movement on the high way. Not quite sure whether it's the TV or the TT swaying. Couldn't look too much on the posture of the TT as I had to 100% focusing on holding the steering :(.
Felt like losing traction, or driving on the snow .
Hmmmm, it aint the truck tire pressure making it sway/squirm. Front tires don't need to be aired up at all. 40psi is fine, your front end is lighter not heavier. Stiff steer tires may make it a little more responsive but won't induce sway.
Rear at 50psi will only serve to help your issue as well.
Based on the appearance and the height numbers, first, that trailer isn't too heavy for the back of the truck, it basically just leveled it out, like it should. And (you know), you don't have hardly any tension on the bars, based on your dimensions.
Part of it, is you have a very lightweight trailer (for the length) and it's not very tongue heavy as is. In order to keep big lightweight TTs manageable, they have a little more tail (length behind axles).
This translates to wanting to wiggle more.
Another thing, whats the trailers tire pressures? Get them suckers pumped up hard. If they're soft it will wiggle more. Does it have 50psi tires? Those will be about maxxed out, at full pressure. And even softer at lower than max pressure.
You can test how much is the trailer tire squirm. Air them up (temporarily) to, say 65psi and take a test run. It should be better. If so, stiffer, higher load tires will help.
Lastly, I'd test it with no wdh as well. Better or worse? Truck might not want any weight off the hitch. And try it with WDH cranked up harder than yo u have it.
When your testing stuff, do it one thing at a time, or you won't know what fixed what.
Good luck.
