hi reo
much of the info related to combos LIKE yours is here...
http://www.airforums.com/forums/f464...-ii-21000.html
the ~600 lb tongue is more like 800 lbs at the drive axle...
and just GUESSING this unloads the front (steering) axle by 2-300 lbs...
which DOES affect steering control, safety and driver comfort.
one of the primary goals with w/d gear is to RESTORE the steering axle to normal loading.

so using w/d AND sway control would be useful in calm towing...
and may be REALLY helpful when stuff happens (like a blow out).
__________
it would be useful NOW to get axle weights for the truck UNhitched and hitched and report those figures here...
this process is also useful to properly adjust whichever w/d sway control hitch u decide to try.
cheers
