The idea of the WDH is to transfer some of the load from the hitch ball to the front wheels of the TV so that the front wheels are not unloaded by the tongue weight of the trailer. There is no advantage to installing a WDH that will exceed the weight of the load.
I have to agree with harveyrv on this one. I am using 600# bars on mine and they level the TM & TV with no problems.
