Dave,

Congrats on your "new" TV. Sounds like a great buy. I can't comment on the brake controller install, but my best advise on the WDH is to hook your TM to it and see how level your rig looks. I'm assuming that your hitch is the Class III/IV one, which would give it a 500 lb tongue weight capacity. If by chance it's the Class II hitch, you have a 350 lb capacity. I don't know what a 2619 ACTUAL tongue weight is (it's certainly more than what's listed at the TM specs sheet), but you should have enough tongue weight capacity that you don't have to worry about the WDH if you're happy with the level.

Some WDH's do have integrated sway control. If yours does not, it is definitely a matter of opinion as to whether a WDH adds any additional sway control. You will get arguments both ways in this forum.

I bet you can't wait to take your first trip with the new rig!

Dave
