I don't think a WD hitch reduces the tongue weight but shifts some of it to the front axle on the TV.

So your payload is 1473 and the trailer's tongue weight is 965. That leaves you with 508 pounds for the WDH, and all passengers and cargo you're going to put in the truck. I would guess, unless you're going solo, that you'll be over your payload capacity.
A WD hitch can shift 15-20% of the trailer load back to the trailer axles. In effect 1000 pounds of tongue weight would put only 800-850 pounds of load on the truck. That can gain a guy a couple of hundred pounds.
