    Yup. If you're needing a lot of weight transfer then Anderson isn't the right setup. Don't get me wrong, you can transfer weight with the Anderson setup but not the range that 1,000 or 1,200 pound bars can transfer.
    Personally, I use the Anderson WDH for my needs. I have 920 pounds of tongue weight. I am able to level my truck with it. My bigger concern with my trailer is sway. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is better for sway control than Anderson.
    Your chief concern is weight distribution. I agree with you. Sway brakes will mitigate sway. Nothing transfers weight like torsion bars. I hope you find the right setup.

    Are you able to get your front end to go back to within a 1/2" of where it was with no load attached? Your rear will sag with weight, that's what springs are meant to do. The load will flatten or slightly invert your compliance leaf (the initial and longest leaf and then the load leaves will begin taken up the slack. Trucks will squat with load.

    With my truck loaded I typically set my hitch to bring the front back to ~ 1/2"-3/4" from where it was with no load to ensure I have enough pressure on the steering axle. The rear drops around 2.5". Front axles on 1/2 tons are not meant to carry a huge load. The best way to ensure you're transferring enough weight is to check your axles at a CAT scale. costs around $10.

    these are my measurements unloaded and loaded with the Anderson and still getting sag in the rear with the RAS on. I sold my Anderson to get the equalizer 4 point hitch
