Depends on which Husky WD hitch. Husky makes cheap not-very-good hitches as well as the excellent original CenterLine and the new pretty-good Centerline TS. The original CentersLine ranks right up there with the Reese Strait-Line trunnion, Blue Ox SwayPro, and Equal-I-Zer

I got an eaz hitch with my used trailer....the tow vehicle was too small, so I got a 1/2 ton GMC rated to tow 9400. Much better.....but, we traded our used TT on a new TT (4k lbs)

The eaz towed OK, but, I wanted better. I bought a Hensley Cub (used), we have been over 1k miles with the rig -GMC, Hensley Hitch, 4k lb TT and...I am thrilled, it tows great, it feels safe, and it does what it's supposed to do..No Sway

The point is, I evolved through the options until I found a comfortable combination. You will eventually get there too, just keep an inquisitive & open mind.

Before I went into a fifth wheel I used a Blue Ox and really liked it.
It was easy to hook up, using the electric tongue jack, and the camming mechanism for hooking the chains was easy. Once I had things tuned in I put a piece of colored electrical tape on the links that went into the "bite" and I wouldn't have to count links and maybe get off one or two.

It also was very silent going down the road.
