Actually, you need to add weight to the front axle. Sounds like your bars are not big enough, if you can, go to the next higher weight rating on the bars.
I don't think so. Not more weight than what was there before the trailer was hitched up. The recommendations have changed in the last five (?) years or so.
Ford and others now recommend only returning 50% of the weight lifted off the front. Equalizer and others say return upto but no more than 100%. So I try to get it between 50-100%, depending upon how close I am to the rear GAWR.
The O.P. probably doesn't have to worry about his rear GAWR as he has a 3/4 ton, so anywhere between 50-100% return of weight should be good. Just choose anything between 50-100% weight return that rides well.
