As for WD hitches- check Craigslist. I found a used WD hitch setup with sway control for $100 used on CL. Another $50 in labor to have the WD pieces added to the trailer and we were good to go.It does make a world of difference-

You always want to check your vehicles owners manual to see what the vehicle is capable of without voided any warranty and/or your vehicle's transmission or motor. Curtmfg.com has quality hitches and sway controls. Remember regardless of the hitch capabilities you should always following the vehicle's manufacture recommendations for max tow weight. Good Luck.

Also you may consider a transmission cooler for your vehicle. If your trailer has brakes consider getting a digital brake control installed at time of hitch installation, it may save you money with the whole package.
