Just beware of the limitations of your OEM hitch. Mine is rated at 500 lb. tongue weight (5000 lb. towing) when used in the weight carrying mode. That goes up to 990/9900 when using a WDH. My TM tongue weight was over 500 lbs. after adding a 2nd battery, so I would have been over the hitch rating without a WDH. The 3023 is listed as about 50 lbs. heavier on the tongue than my 2720.

When I did a weigh in before adding my second battery, to close to 500 lb. tongue weight added 700 lbs. to my rear axle, and took off 200 lbs. from my front axle. Adding airbags will get your headlites out of the trees, but will do nothing to get the weight distributed back to the front axle.

What is your wheelbase?
