Forgot to mention that the Hensley is quite expensive (but the best).

Husky makes a good, simple WD hitch that would work quite well for your trailer. They run $200 - $300. I have used this hitch before and it works well with or without the sway control arm. Do a web search on Husky and you will find several dealers.

Thanks Colorado Camper. I kinda figured the Hensley was top of the line best. I'll check out the Husky. I can live with that price.

My truck was still lowered 3" in the back before the trailer, so there of course its gonna look like its "sagging" only thing i needed was a taller lift receiver hitch to level the trailer out

I've towed more weight than in your picture without a WD hitch, twice. As I said, a handful of times, skip it. A boat/RV one plans to use for many years, get it.
