I'm getting a mixed message :) One of you is saying it will be fine, the other is saying it is not :)
I can get to U-Hault and get the controlled brake with the 7 pins installed.
For those who think it is not safe, is that statement with the controlled brake?
Others did not look at the website you posted and are assuming you are looking at trailer with GVWR of 5,000 lbs.
The trailer you linked actually has GVWR of 3,500 lbs and as such will be considerably lighter tongue weight than say a 5,000 lb GVWR trailer.
And yes, if you are not comfortable DIYing the brake controller, UHaul should be able to do that for you.
Forgot to mention, have them connect the battery charging line also, your tow vehicle does not have that and it will be needed to help keep your battery on the trailer charged while towing.
