Is the 950lb tw the "brochure" dry tw? Is so, you actually have ~1100lbs tw before even loading the trailer with clothes, food, chairs, etc. The 2-30lb propane tanks and a battery are not included in the "brochure" dry tw, adding ~160lbs. Per one post only about 130lbs less than your receiver rating? That is another rating you need to watch.
You have enough payload per the yellow sticker if that is where you got the 2000lb rating.
As mentioned, load the trailer up and readjust the wdh. If possible, weigh the tongue with a bathroom scale as posted. Search for how to weigh tongue weight with a bathroom scale.
Good luck and keep us posted!!!
