Default Weight Distribution Hitch??

After reading all the posts on WDHs, I've decided to buy one......I'm not sure why. My rig seems to handle pretty well...guess I'm running out of things to buy. I just want to be sure that I don't buy something that I may regret later.........ANY and all suggestions will be appreciated.

Anyway, I thought that I would like to get some opinions from you guys that use them. I found this one on eBay:

Anyone have any thoughts???

My TrailManor is about 4,000# loaded, tongue wt 450#. I typically put about 350# of gear in the back of the truck (including the camper shell). I have air bags on the leaf springs and air shocks:eyecrazy:.........leveling is not an issue. Braking is my main concern. It's not been an issue up to now but it only takes once....

I tow with a Chevy S-10 specs below

Front GAWR 2,500 lbs.
Rear GAWR 2,300 lbs.
